Skjoldungen: Preparing for the journey

11-03-2016
You just need to dream big then you can come to Greenland and sail a Viking ship! A sentence that requires an explanation: during summer 2016, the Viking ship Skjoldungen, together with its crew of eight, will sail from southern Greenland up to Nuuk, along the coast where the Vikings had their primary settlements. The project has come to being thanks to equal parts passion, lust for adventure and determination. The volunteer crew began preparing the boat early this spring, partly so they could be ready in time for some early (and cold) sail-training and partly because the boat will be transported to its start destination in early May.
