Husky dream

Drive your own husky team

Do you love dogs, and would you like to learn more about mindfulness, animal welfare and at the same time be driving your own dog sled team in a unique environment?

Then this is the tour for you!

We start the day with our unique dog sled tour. After a proper driving instruction, in which we also teach you how to best interact with our dogs, we head out over the frozen swamps and river and through mountain forest. Two people in a team take turns in driving and sitting on the sled. We find ourselves in the fantastic environment with Sweden’s tallest mountain - Kebnekaise in the background. The tour is long and every driver gets to drive about 45 minutes each. We ned up the tour by massaging the dogs and have a lunch.
