Siorapaluk (West Greenlandic) or Hiurapaluk (Polar Eskimo) is a settlement in the Qaanaaq area of the Qaasuitsup municipality in northern Greenland. It is one of the World’s northernmost inhabited settlements.
There is good hunting in the area of the settlement, and the cliffs around it function as breeding grounds for dovekie (Alle alle) – also known as “auk” – and the thick-billed murre (Uria lomvia).
There are many arctic foxes and arctic hares in the area and an abundance of seals and walruses which are hunted. Air Greenland operates settlement flights to Qaanaaq Airport and to Savissivik Heliport via Thule Air Base. The twice-weekly flights are subsidized by the Government of Greenland.
