Dogsledding
Enjoy us for an exciting dog sledding trip in the arctic natur! The path goes through a magical terrain, and among majestic mountains, where you can enjoy the tranquility of the wilderness.
Did you know that a well-trained sled dog can run 500 km in a few days? The distance from Paris to London! And after a break and some food, it will be ready to run the same distance back! Why? Well, sled dogs are like that – they love to run! We start with to learn to know the dogs, and the equipment, show how to mush a dog sled. In pairs, you drive dog teams with 4-6 dogs through a magical terrain, and among majestic mountains. The tour is led by a very knowledgeable tour guide with her own dog team. Winter in polar regions is special. It is often quiet and starry. The trees are covered with ice crystals, and nature has gone into a dormant state. It will never be completely dark, as the Aurora Borealis is over us. After the dog sled ride, lunch and hot drinks will be served in a heated lavvo.
