Located at the far end of the Nuuk Fjord, Kapisillit is a quaint village in a sprawling bay with a scenic mountain backdrop. Amid its blue-tinged waters, icebergs drift along as they make their way along the Nuuk Icefjord to the ocean. Several hiking trails weave their way from the town toward the backcountry and along the Kapisillit River, a popular spot for local salmon fishing. It is the only known location in Greenland with a spawning salmon population, and the species found in these waters cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
