DESCRIPTION
Set away from Rovaniemi, deep in the Lapland wilderness, this family-run kennel offers a truly private and authentic husky experience surrounded by snowy landscapes. After pickup and being dressed in warm gear, you’ll head into the forest where friendly dogs and passionate mushers will welcome you. You’ll receive simple driving instructions before meeting your own husky team.
Then it’s time to set off on a 6–10 km sled ride through the wilderness, lasting around 30–50 minutes depending on the snow and the dogs’ pace. Two people share a sled-one driving, one riding-and you can switch halfway, so both get the full experience.
After the ride, take time to relax with the dogs, they love attention, cuddles, and photos.
You can also warm up by the fire and chat with the mushers, who are happy to share their knowledge and stories. Most sled dogs in Lapland are Alaskan huskies, a mixed breed known for their energy and love of running.
Unlike Siberian huskies, they come in all shapes, sizes, and colors – each one unique, but all equally friendly and eager to go.

FAQ – HUSKY ADVENTURES
Do not delete
Is it difficult to drive a dog sled, especially for a beginner?
Not at all! Driving the sled is accessible even for beginners. Our guides will provide full instructions and accompany you throughout the ride to ensure your comfort and safety. Usually, there are two people per sled: one driving and one as a passenger. You can (but don’t have to) switch roles halfway through the safari.
Is the husky sled (cart) experience possible in summer?
The husky sled (cart) experience is not available during summer, as it can be too warm for the dogs to run safely.
We usually start husky cart rides from October, or late September if the weather permits, when temperatures are cool enough to ensure the well-being of the huskies. However, during the summer months, you can still visit the husky kennel, meet the dogs, and learn more about their life, care, and training.
