Itinerary description

Challenging
6.6 km one way
85 m max altitude

The extended route to a lush valley with magnificent views of surrounding mountains offers a more comprehensive exploration of the valley, lakes and mountains behind Maniitsoq and passes by the small ski centre that operates during winter.

The last part back into Maniitsoq requires hikers to scramble over boulders and negotiate passages between large rocks. Only recommended for those who are confident in their balance.

The trail is very narrow, but well-marked with mostly gentle to moderate grades. There is one section that might be underwater, so you may need to remove your shoes.

A short, easy extension along an established trail leads to the perfect picnic spot at the Uluusia viewpoint.
