Geography edit

Bredefjord is oriented in a roughly NW/SE direction and its mouth opens at the junction with the Smallefjord from the west into the Ardencaple Fjord, Hochstetter Bay, Greenland Sea.[2] The large Stormgletscher and Ejnar Mikkelsen glaciers form a confluence at its head.[3]

Norlund Land, part of Queen Margrethe II Land, lies to the north of the fjord and C. H. Ostenfeld Land to the south.[4]
