Qalorujoorneq

Qalorujoorneq, also written Qalorngoorneq, is a small mountain range in eastern Kulusuk Island in southeastern Greenland and, at 676 metres, includes the island’s highest point. Lying southeast of Kulusuk Airport, it is defined by steep coastal faces, branching ridges, and dramatic drops into the North Atlantic on its northeast and east sides. Its southern side is lower and offers the easiest ascent. A broad western wall rises above a post-glacial cirque holding the lake Qalorngoorner Imerarpia. From the main summit area, southeastern, southwestern, and northwestern ridges extend toward the island’s promontory, easiest climbing route, and interior respectively.
