Occasionally, we spotlight extreme adventures—not the kind of trips everyone can or wants to undertake, but ones that truly ignite the imagination. This is one of them: the crossing of the Greenland ice cap from south to north by kite ski.

Covering an incredible 930 miles (1,500 km) from Kangerlussuaq to Qaanaaq, this expedition is a true test of endurance.

Imagine the sheer magic of gliding effortlessly through the vast, icy expanse of this remote and rugged landscape for miles and miles.

Using specially designed kites, adventurers harness the power of the wind to glide across snow and ice at remarkable speeds.

This unique mode of travel allows for covering large distances relatively quickly, turning what might be an arduous trek into an exhilarating ride.
