Brattahlid Viking Culture & Norse Food Tasting Experience

Combine a guided tour of the Viking settlement with a curated tasting of traditional South Greenlandic foods — smoked lamb, dried fish, crowberries, and more — prepared by a local host family in the spirit of Norse hospitality.

What to expect

After a walk through the Viking ruins, you are welcomed into a local farmhouse where the hosts have laid out traditional dishes: slow-roasted lamb raised on the very hillside you just hiked, dried Arctic char, hand-picked crowberry preserves, and flatbread baked on an iron griddle. The host explains the unbroken pastoral tradition linking Norse settlers to today's Greenlandic farmers. Stories are shared in a mix of Danish, Greenlandic, and English, creating an intimate cross-cultural exchange. It is as much a living history lesson as a meal.

Booking
We have not yet verified a bookable operator and price for this one.

Good to know

This is a rare private arrangement; confirm with Tasermiut Greenland well in advance and specify dietary requirements. Allow 2.5–3 hours total. Pairs beautifully with the Viking Estate Walk as a back-to-back half-day.
