Washington Land is a peninsula in northwestern Greenland. It is a part of the Avannaata municipality.[1]

Washington Land was explored in the 19th century. Traditionally it was one of the hunting grounds of the Inuit, but there are archaeological remains of more permanent human habitation in ancient times.
