A group of people riding skis on a snowy hill
  • Embark on an exhilarating dogsledding experience

  • See professional mushers and racing dogs at work

  • Enjoy a peaceful ride through stunning Arctic scenery

What better way to discover the unspoilt Arctic landscape than on an age-old, traditional husky sled ride?  

We’ll begin our adventure by getting kitted out at the camp with thermal outdoor clothing. The beautiful husky dogs are eagerly waiting to meet you and take you on a journey you’ll never forget. Each sled will be travelling with its own musher who knows how best to command the husky pack. Sit back and take in every thrilling minute as you glide along in the care of these experienced guides.   

We meander through the terrain, across frozen lakes, through snow-dusted forests and along mountain plateaus. You’ll get to enjoy these natural wonders in near silence, without the roar of an engine.

As our trip draws to a close, we gather round the cosy campfire for a warming drink.
