Danmark Fjord, Arctic fjord in Northeast Greenland National Park, Greenland
Danmark Fjord is an Arctic waterway in northeastern Greenland, stretching inland from the coast. Islands rise along its channel, and the entire landscape remains locked in permanent ice throughout the year.
An exploration expedition crossed this fjord between 1906 and 1908 while seeking an unconfirmed waterway. This journey was important for mapping and understanding this remote Arctic region.
Scientific work shapes the character of this area, with researchers at nearby stations conducting regular observations and measurements. This activity influences how people engage with the fjord today and contributes to Arctic knowledge.
Access depends on specialized ice-capable ships, as ice covers the fjord throughout the year. Visitors should prepare for extreme cold and extended periods of darkness.
Unlike many other fjords in the region, this one has no major glacier at its head. Yet its surface remains frozen year-round, revealing how extreme conditions are in this part of Greenland.
