A small settlement in northeastern Greenland at the entrance to the Scoresby Sund fjord, about 700 kilometers from the Arctic Circle, Egesmünne (Ittoqqortoormiit) is one of the most remote human communities on earth. With a resident population of less than 500, it is predominantly Inuit and retains a traditional hunting culture that relies on seals, polar bears and whales for its livelihood. Surrounded by magnificent glaciers, fjords and polar wilderness, the settlement offers views of the Midnight Sun in the summer and the glorious Aurora Borealis in the winter. Despite its remoteness, Egerselmünner has an airstrip and basic facilities, and in recent years has emerged as a destination for polar expeditions and eco-tourism, attracting travelers looking for pristine nature experiences.
