Uunartoq Hot Springs

Although there are hot springs all around Greenland, the ones on the isolated island of Uunartoq have the ideal temperature for bathing. You can immerse yourself in this small pool formed by the fusion of three naturally warm springs while being surrounded by icebergs and breathtaking mountain peaks.

East Greenland and the Disko Islands both have a number of hot springs, but South Greenland is the only location where the hot springs have been dammed up. The only heated outdoor spa in Greenland is located on an uninhabited island between Qaqortoq and Nanortalik. These hot springs are made up of three smaller springs that combine to form a sizable tub. Since the water is always comfortable for soaking in this naturally heated outdoor spa, visitors can come all year long and in any weather. On Disko Island itself, there are literally thousands of springs, and there are also about a hundred or so more on the easterly side of Greenland.
