Always bring warm clothing, maps, water and food
Always check the weather forecast before you leave. Sudden changes in weather with fog or strong winds are common
Always let somebody know where you plan to go, and when you expect to get back
Do not go alone
Avoid going close to the waterline, since calving icebergs can create huge tidal waves, without notice
Follow the marked routes or choose guided tours if you are not familiar with the Greenlandic nature
Bring a satellite phone and first aid on trips
Do not go on longer trips such as kayaking or skiing, if you do not have the experience
Do not go up on the ice if you do not have experience with glaicer-climbing
Sled dogs are not pets. Do not touch or feed them
