Dog sledding with Huskies
  • 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 

The polar winter is truly special. The air is often quiet and crisp, and the trees are draped in shimmering ice crystals, and nature is in a peaceful, dormant state. This serene environment provides the perfect backdrop for your dog sledding adventure, but make sure to wrap up warm and wear several layers.  

After a transfer from Narvik to Husky Isogaisa, the fun begins with getting to know the dogs and equipment. You'll learn how to mush a dog 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 your journey through this winter paradise, which lasts up to an hour,  you'll be welcomed into a heated Sámi lavvo. Here, you can keep warm with hot drinks and snacks, sharing stories together. This is more than just a tour, it's an encounter with nature that you'll never forget.
