Experience the midwinter in Lapland! Travel through the fairytale forests and see the mysterious northern lights slowly dancing over the sky. Join us and our huskies on this dog sledding adventure.

A midwinter dog sledding adventure in the deep forests of Lapland, north of the arctic circle.
Drive your own team of Siberian huskies, live wilderness life and experience the northern lights.
Spend the nights in a canvas tent and wooden huts. Fetch water from a hole in the ice and feel the warmth from the glowing fire in the wooden stove. See tracks from the wild animals and experience the true wilderness way of living in close contact with our loving sled dogs.

A four day long dog sledding adventure. Not to long but long enough to give you a real wilderness experience and enough time to learn dog sledding properly, get to know the huskies and live a simple life in nature without electricity and running water.

Welcome to a real dog sledding adventure!


Day 1-4 Four days of dog sledding and three nights in the wild

We will pick you up in Jokkmokk and drive you to our kennel, located just outside Jokkmokk. Here those who need get dressed in warm thermo parkas and pants and boots. You will learn how to handle a dog sled, how to communicate with the huskies and learn about safety in cold climate etc.
We harness
the sled dogs and pack the sleds and get ready for start. You will drive your own team with 4 Siberian huskies.

Every day we stop and prepare our lunch over open fire out in the nature. By the huts and tent camps everyone helps out with taking care of and feeding the dogs, cooking and fetch water from the lake/river etc.
In the tent camp we stay in a large common canvas tent, heated with a wood stove. We are sleeping on reindeer skins in warm sleeping bags.
The cabin is a simple but cozy wood hut without electricity or running water, also heated by a wood stove.

There is no guarantee for
northern lights but hopefully we will see this fantastic light phenomena dancing over the sky during the nights.

On day four we head back to Jokkmokk and will arrive to the kennel in the afternoon full of new experiences. We give the dogs some snacks and take off the harnesses.
After saying goodbye to your new friends we drive you back to Jokkmokk.
