Remote Destinations That Make You Feel Like the Last Person on Earth

6. The Hidden Fjords of Scoresby Sund, Greenland

If you’ve ever dreamed of kayaking through a landscape that feels untouched for millennia, Scoresby Sund in Greenland is the place to go. As the largest fjord system in the world, it’s a staggering expanse of glacial-carved waterways, towering icebergs, and snow-dusted cliffs, yet remains one of the most isolated and least-visited places on Earth. The silence here is absolute, broken only by the distant cracking of ice or the occasional sighting of a polar bear drifting on an ice floe. To reach it, adventurers must sail from Iceland through the frigid Arctic waters—an odyssey in itself. With icebergs as tall as skyscrapers reflecting the golden glow of the Arctic sun, Scoresby Sund offers a sense of scale and solitude that few places can match.
