Overnight tour with dog sled on the Arctic Circle

Experience the cold of a midwinter night, the northern lights dancing over the sky and the fire’s heat and glow. Get the taste of being a musher on the Arctic Circle on an overnight tour.

Learn how to handle and drive “your own” team of our friendly and loving sled dogs. Travel on a dog sled in the deep forests of Jokkmokk for two days and one night. Spend the night in a wood heated tent or a timber hut, close to nature without electricity and running water.

Day 1-2 Two days of dog sledding and one overnight in the wild

Two days of dog sledding and one overnight in the wild"] After you arrived to our kennel you will get to borrow a snowmobile suite, warm winter boots, hats and gloves.
After you got dressed we go out to the sleds and we will give you instructions in how to drive a dog sled and how to handle the dogs before we harness them and take off.
We'll drive until it's time for lunch. We cook our food over open fire somewhere in the forest before we head on to our canvas tent or a wilderness cabin where we will spend our night.
During the afternoon and evening you will get the opportunity to try snowshoe walking. Before we eat dinner and make our self comfortable we will feed and take care of the huskies.

The next day we fix breakfast and pack up before we harness the dogs in front of the sleds and take off back to the kennel.
We will stop for lunch in the woods and will be back in Jokkmokk approx. 3 PM.
