I'm hiking the trail in September, hoping there will be less people around and a chance of seeing the Aurora (although I realise it is still early in the season for that, just an optimist by nature)...I'm heading West to East, from Sisimiut to Kangerlussuaq, taking around 8 to 9 days. I have the Ciccerone guidebook and the maps and just bought myself a big fluffy down jacket, I'm taking the weather and isolation at that time of year a tad seriously!
Great to hear other Aussies are planning on walking this path, I had it on my tick list for years but when I listened to a Trail Show podcast- number #64 about the A.C.T. I just went and booked my tickets to Copenhagen.
Be fantastic to get some tips before I head off in a few months.
