What to expect?
Around an hour from Tromsø, you will find our kennel surrounded by mighty mountains and deep valleys, making this safari a real northern Norwegian, Arctic experience.
Here you will be greeted by happy huskies eagerly waiting to take you out on a fantastic dog-sledding experience. We have comfortable and warm winter suits, winter shoes, and mittens to keep you warm during the dog sledding adventure (60 to 90 minutes drive).
After a short explanation of how to handle the dogs and sleds, we will leave in pairs. One will be the "musher" (driver), and the other will be on the sled. You change places along the way. The huskies love to run, but you have to be part of the team and help them up the slopes. It is a fun experience, but also a little physical workout...
This trip will give you a smile on your face and red roses on your cheeks. Back in the camp, hot soup and drinks await.Please note: Husky mushing is for almost everyone, but you need to be physically healthy, as you will need to run and push the sled uphill.
