If you’re looking for a really special and memorable experience, then you may want to plan your trip for the winter season. You can travel to Kangerlussuaq, which is in West Greenland and is known for being the most concentrated hunting area in the country. You can find excellent hunting opportunities just outside the gates of the airport since you are immediately surrounded by wide-open nature. This area is prime territory for musk ox hunting, as musk ox love the arctic tundra region located near the Ice Cap. They tend to gather in very large herds, making them relatively easy to track and spot.Be Prepared for a Challenge

Even though there is plenty of musk ox for hunting in Greenland, it’s still a very challenging and physically demanding adventure. There’s a good chance you will be doing a lot of walking and hiking through forests, hills, and over uneven terrain, so you want to be dressed in the proper clothing and footwear. The adventure tends to be quite the cardio experience. It’s not unusual to need to walk 1-5kms per day, and keep in mind you also need to be able to carry your trophy that distance. Many of the guided tours also include camping out in the wilderness along the way, which again pushes you to your limits.
