What's the Most Isolated place you have ever visited ?
I've been watching the wonderful BBC series, Amazing Hotels, life beyond the Lobby
Really well made interesting series
Some of the hotels featured were so isolated like the Fogo Island Inn in Canada on a really isolated small island and Mashpi Lodge, Ecuador in the forrest
The hotels are really special , especially given their location, but man i would go nuts in somewhere so isolated.
Have you ever visited anywhere so isolated ?

Greenland made a day trip from Iceland. Natives ( The Men) had just killed a Polar bear and were cleaning it. Well the women were doing the cleaning and the men drinking beer. We rode dog sleds and had fish fry at the village Town Hall. Then snow storm blew in and almost got stranded. It was very exciting.

Greenland here, too. Flew from Copenhagen to Kangerlussuaq, then on by domestic flight to Ilulissat. After travelling round that area, took a 2-3 day ferry ride up to Uummannaq. Did a fair bit of walking. Once you get past the dog fields (they're chained up outside of winter), and out of town, you barely see another soul. It's quite something. Did some camping on some of the islands round Qeqertarsuaq too, was rather wonderful.

When driving across the country my buddy I took a detour on New Mexico Rt. 9 while driving East into El Paso. We didn't see another vehicle or person for hours and the only other people we did see were boarder patrol agents

My post is intended to be a joke, but this may actually be my personal correct answer. I went by train and it seemed to travel through nothing for a long distance before arriving.
Otherwise, perhaps the Shotover gorge in the South Island of New Zealand. No, my examples don't compare to Greenland!
