Located on the south coast of Disko Island in western Greenland, Qeqertarsuaq, or “the large island,” is a port town in the Qeqetalik municipality. University of Copenhagen has a satellite campus here known affectionately as Arctic Station. The town’s population is under 1,000 with around 50 of them living inside Kangerluk or Diskofjord, the only remaining settlement in the area. This settlement is also the site where in 1999 scientists documented a “galloping” glacier that moves up to 330 feet per day. Many flat mountains surround the small town; they’re all capped with snow and are easier to reach in the winter than in the summer. While they do have a helipad that allows helicopters to fly in primarily during the spring and summer, the main source of transport between islands and the mainland is Diskoline—the local passenger and cargo ferry service. While glaciers may be a dominant feature, there are also a number of relaxing hot springs.
