Qornok, also known as Qoornoq, is an uninhabited fishing village on the northeastern coast of the Qoornuup Qeqertarsua Island in the Nuup Kangerlua fjord. Situated to the northeast of Nuuk, it is over an hour away by motorboat. Qornok is a popular summer resort for its bright old houses and landscape of snowy peaks and pristine waters. Inhabited as far back as 2200 BC by the ancient pre-Inuit, Paleo-Eskimo people of the Saqqaq culture, Qornok contains archaeological ruins of ancient Inuit and Norse buildings. The village also had a railway for transporting fish, which was shut down when the village was abandoned in the 1970s as the local fishing industry closed.
