Overview

Woof, woof! The dog sledding season starts early thanks to our specially prepared snowy trails made from snow stored during the previous winter.

Huskies, one of the most loved animals of the North, are sure to capture your heart. On this tour, you’ll have the chance to pet them, take photos, and learn more about their lives. The highlight is a 3 km ride, where you get to drive your own husky team through the Arctic landscape. Our experienced mushers are there to guide you every step of the way, so you can enjoy the experience like a true Arctic explorer.
