Drive your own team of huskies through the pristine Arctic wilderness near Narvik on this exhilarating self-drive dog sled experience.
Breathe pure air and feel deep peace in the wintry Gratangen forest
Learn how to handle a team of huskies as you glide across the snow
Meet the happy and well-looked-after family dogs
Enjoy true Sámi hospitality in a traditional heated lavvo tent
A transfer from Narvik – crossing briefly into Sweden – brings you to Husky Isogaisa, where the polar winter sets a magical scene. The air is crisp, the trees are laden with ice crystals, and the landscape lies in peaceful stillness.
After meeting the dogs, you'll learn how to mush your own sled, guided by an experienced tour leader with her own team of dogs. Once you're familiar with the basics, you'll pair up and drive your own team of 4-6 dogs through the stunning, magical terrain. The dogs love running and will enjoy the ride just as much as you will!
After around an hour of driving, you'll be welcomed back at base into a heated Sámi lavvo to warm up with a hot drink and snack. This is more than just a tour – it's an encounter with nature that you'll never forget.

Level 1 = Easy: suitable for most
Excursions at this level are physically undemanding and suitable for most people. Level 2 = Moderate: some mobility needed
Excursions in this category involve a small amount of physical activity, but on easy terrain with few major challenges. Level 3 = Active: good mobility needed
Excursions in this category are more active and involve outdoor pursuits that require a decent level of fitness. You may be expected to carry your own backpack and equipment. They are not suitable for those with limited mobility.
Level 4 = Challenging: good mobility and fitness needed
These are our most challenging excursions, and require a good level of fitness. They may involve hiking or biking on uneven terrain and may also require specialist equipment. You would be expected to carry your own backpack and equipment. Excursions in this category are not suitable for those with limited mobility.
