Introduction to Husky Sledding

Before entering the dog yard to prepare your own team of dogs,you'll receive a brief introduction to the tour. This hands-on experience allows you to bond with your team of huskies, learning about their personalities and unique traits as you harness them up and prepare for the adventure ahead. From the dog sled, you'll get to enjoy the wild and untouched landscapes. After about 45 minutes of sledding, you'll return and put the dogs back in their places. You'll also have some time to cuddle with the dogs and greet the sheep, which are of an old Norwegian breed. Afterwards, you'll be served a warm drink and freshly baked waffles around the bonfire.
