World's largest national park, a vast Arctic wilderness protecting Greenland's northeastern interior and coast

Northeast Greenland National Park

Northeast Greenland National Park represents a landmark in global conservation — not only as the world's largest national park but as one of the most significant protected wilderness areas remaining on Earth. The park occupies the entire northeastern portion of Greenland, spanning from the ice-capped interior to a dramatic coastline etched with deep fjords and scattered islands. This vast territory encompasses geographic regions including King Frederick VIII Land and King Christian X Land, protecting a landscape that remains among the most sparsely populated and least visited on the planet. The park shares borders with the Sermersooq municipality in the south and the Avannaata municipality in the west, with the boundary along the ice cap following the 45th meridian west. What makes this park extraordinary is not merely its size but the completeness of the Arctic ecosystem it preserves — from the continental ice sheet to coastal marine environments, from polar desert terrain to the habitats that support some of the largest remaining populations of Arctic megafauna. The park is the second-largest second-level subdivision of any country in the world, surpassed only by the Qikiqtaaluk Region in Nunavut, Canada.
