Join us on an unforgettable journey to one of the most remote and pristine kayaking destinations on the planet. Located above 70° North, the Upernavik area of northwest Greenland offers dramatic mountain landscapes, colossal icebergs, and a true immersion in the Arctic wilderness. This is our second PYB expedition to this extraordinary region, designed to take novice and less-experienced paddlers on the adventure of a lifetime.

Immerse yourself in the rugged beauty of the Yukon wilderness as the river winds us through a landscape of towering mountains, pristine forests, and crystal-clear exciting white water.
