Greenland | A Sailing Expedition in Scoresby Sund

In the Wake of the North Wind - a sailing expedition through the untouched beauty of East Greenland. A cinematic documentation of our life on board a wooden two mast schooner named Ópal, navigating through the largest fjord system of the world: Scoresby Sund at 71° North! This fjord system along with the small settlement of Ittoqqortoormiit, is one of the most remote places on Earth and while being there, we met more Greenland Dogs than people - the legendary Qimmeq Qimuttoq.

An intimidating experience in the high Arctic, as our boat gave us a feeling of how adventurous and tough expeditions must have been like back in the days. A trip that exceeded all our expectations. The Scoresby Sound, Kangertittivaq in Greenlandic, left us all in awe!

I’m hesitant to put this in the Call Of The North series but somehow it fits as well. You decide :) The sail took place from 30.08. to 06.09.2023.
