An evening full of ice, expanses, and quiet border experiences in Mainz
With GREENLAND - Call of Silence, visitors at the Lerchenberg Community Center are in for an impressive evening lecture about one of the last great wilderness regions on Earth. The Dutch professional adventurer Jolanda Linschooten reports on crossing the Greenland ice cap on skis over 600 kilometers and takes the audience into a landscape characterized by silence, polar storms, and immense expanses. The lecture is part of the DAV Section Mainz program and takes place on November 24, 2026 at 7:30 PM. ([dav-mainz.de](https://www.dav-mainz.de/programm/vortraege_und_veranstaltungen))
Greenland as a realm of extremes
Greenland does not appear here as a distant projection surface, but as a concrete experiential world: ice, light, cold, and the quiet grandeur of Arctic landscapes are the focus. The described expedition leads deep into a terrain that is inhabited by only a few people and whose interior is completely covered by an ice cap. This connection of nature experience, physical challenge, and cultural-historical expanse makes the evening a special cultural enrichment.

A speaker with experience, awards, and outdoor competence
Jolanda Linschooten works as a photographer, filmmaker, author, and adventurer. On her own biography page, she lists qualifications and courses in areas such as glacier rescue, rope techniques, and Wilderness Advanced First Aid, as well as awards and nominations from the travel, photography, and outdoor context. This blend of practical expedition experience and journalistic storytelling gives the lecture professional depth and trust. ([jolandalinschooten.nl](https://www.jolandalinschooten.nl/over-mij/))
