Origins and Evolution

Situated on the western coast of Greenland’s Avannaata region, Uummannaq Heliport (ICAO: BGUM) serves as the aerial lifeline to one of the most visually striking settlements in the Arctic. Established in the mid-1990s, the heliport provided a transformative alternative to boat and dog-sled travel, connecting Uummannaq Island to Qaarsut Airport on the Nuussuaq Peninsula. This strategic link enabled year-round air service, ensuring reliable Greenland travel options for locals and tourists alike.
