Arctic Circle Trail (ACT)

The Arctic Circle Trail (ACT) is a legendary 165km wilderness trek that carves through the heart of West Greenland. Connecting the inland hub of Kangerlussuaq with the coastal bustle of Sisimiut, the trail traverses the Aasivissuit–Nipisat UNESCO World Heritage site—a cultural hunting landscape that has sustained Inuit cultures for over 4,000 years. The journey takes you through a vast, treeless tundra where the only company you'll have are the occasional muskox or reindeer. It's a land of rolling hills, sapphire-blue lake systems, and profound silence, offering one of the most immersive long-distance wilderness experiences in the Arctic.

The trek to Laguna de los Tres is one of the primary day activities in Los Glaciares National Park, providing a close-perspective view of the granite massif of Mount Fitz Roy (3,405m). The route follows an out-and-back trail through mixed forest and glaciated valleys, passing the Piedras Blancas viewpoint before the final ascent. The journey is defined by a significant transition from the low-lying valley floor to the high-alpine environment of the lagoon, which sits directly below the main peaks.
