Arctic Circle Race

Arctic Circle Race is one of the most famous festivals in Greenland. Even if you are not a fan of the sport, watching the greatest skiers from across the world compete in the world's toughest cross-country race will leave you speechless. The skiers press back to complete a hundred miles in temperatures as low as -30 degrees Fahrenheit.

The skiers almost take three days to reach the goal, and they spend two nights amidst the icy landscapes of the region. The festival, which has been held in Sisimiut every April since 1998, has evolved into a ritual. Because the skiers are accompanied by well-trained and really attractive sled dogs, one should not be concerned about their safety.
