Odinland (Danish: Odin Land),[1] also Odinsland in the Defense Mapping Agency Greenland Navigation charts,[2] is a peninsula in the King Frederick VI Coast, southeastern Greenland. It is a part of the Sermersooq municipality.

The peninsula is fully exposed to the influence of the Greenland Ice Sheet. In spite of the proximity of the coast and despite being located south of the Arctic Circle, an ice cap climate prevails in Odinland.[3]
