Nansen Land is a peninsula in far northwestern Greenland. It is a part of the Northeast Greenland National Park.[1]

The Arctic wolf is present in the peninsula.[2][3] The northern shore facing the Lincoln sea slopes evenly and is fertile for the area, being the northernmost limit of certain plant species.[4][5]
