Tasersuaq Lake Loop

Highlight • Lake

This glacier lake is worth a hike. On one side, the path is flat, stony, sometimes a little uneven. Dense soil vegetation, including blueberries. On the other hand, you should be sure-footed with condition, it goes into the mountains.
But a nice walk, about 16km.

If you have a little time, the long circular walk around Lake Tasersuaq near Qaqortoq is worthwhile. Just follow the path. In addition, it is marked with small cairns.

View of Lake Tasersuaq

Highlight • Lake

Until the middle (end) of the Tasersuaq lake, the path is easy to walk but also very wet and stony in places.
At the end of the lake you have to decide whether to turn back, because for the way you need surefootedness and you have to climb here and there.

Qaqortoq

Highlight • Settlement

A beautiful little town; which is best explored on foot.
In the surrounding mountains, there are views of the fjord world and the sea ice, which drifts along the east coast from the polar sea.
