Reindeer hunting in Greenland with Team Lax-a

Greenland Reindeer are known to be larger than those found in most of the other Arctic and sub-Arctic regions, both in the weight and size of their antlers..

All transportation during the hunting is done by well equipped boats, experianced skippers, and always more then one boat..

Every two hunters have a guide and on a typical day they can expect to be on foot for three to four hours walking over a mixture of ground that can be rocky, mossy, grassy, or heather covered. The guides will discuss the previous evening the best options for the day’s sport..

If you take your reindeer trophie early, you are most welcome to go fishing for Arctic Charr..

There is a maximum of six hunters at any one time and therefore plenty of room for each pair of guns..



If a client takes a trophy early in the week, an extra trophy may be bought, or sight seeing, exploring and fishing can be arranged at no extra charge..

Shooting directly from the boat is possible if the Hunter is not fit ore healthy enough to walk and search for deers, see the dark spots in the water..this is a group of char..

There is a direct flight from Reykjavík (Iceland) to Narsarsuaq in Greenland every Friday and Thuesday..



The hunting is not only for men but also women can go for these trip, infact at least 10%of last seasons trip where done by women, and we like that a lot..

The hunting trips will be in August and September since that is the prime time for reindeer hunting in Greenland. Clients will be met at Narsarsuaq airport by our professional and well trained staff who runs the reindeer hunting concession in Greenland, and then be taken by boat to camp ore a Local Hotel.  Hunting takes place every day with our very experienced guides from Greenland and Iceland. The Hotel is very nice, good food and great service, but we can also offer rustic accommodation..


Amazing sight to have when going home after a hard days work on th field, the sunset, Iceberg, deers in the boat, smell of the trophies and the good taste of quality whiskey..

Here is Axelo with one trophy shot from the boat this summer, they look quite the same, don´t they??

For sight-seeing trips in the area the clients should talk direct with the guides..
