The ice fjord on Greenland is breathtaking, near the city Ilulissat.
40 kilometers long and 7 kilometers wide. The most active glacier on earth.
The flow rate per day is 20 meters. This activity fills the fjord with ice and icebergs. Can reach a height of up 700 meters.
From the glacier to the fjord end, the icebergs need 12 to 15 months.

I went from the ship through the city to the fjord and made a hike along the fjord, always along the icebergs.
It was breathtaking and an unforgettable experience.

This is the way from the city to the fjord.

Wow! That is a lot of ice . That looks like a really cool experience, and these photos are amazing!

Seeing these hug icebergs is overwhelming. That is really a lot of ice. They come from the fjord and then swim individually in the famous disco bay.

I would love to travel to Greenland. Nice pics.

Really, Greenland is very interesting. In summer there are a lot of flowers near the ice and the light is beautiful.
