Dog sledding through Lapland

Lapland is generally defined as the part of Scandinavia which lies north of the Arctic Circle. The area covers multiple countries including Norway, Finland, Sweden and Russia. This part of the world is sparsely populated, with a population density of approximately just two people per square kilometre. In the east, the land is flat. But in the west, you will find hilly landscapes. In the area around the border between Norway and Sweden, the landscape rises notably. In the region that is called “Scandinavian Mountains”, you can find mountains that are up to 2,000 metres high. You will also find numerous national parks and nature reserves, which span across the borders of several countries.

Husky Expeditions through Alaska

The dog sledge was once the only means of transport in Alaska. Even today, there are still areas that are accessible only by sledge. Those who want to enjoy undisturbed nature far from civilisation should take a tour with the dog sledge. Huskies are friendly, joyful animals that enjoy being in a pack. They also do not mind the cold and pulling the sledges. On the contrary, running in packs is a lot of fun for the dogs. You have never driven a dog sledge? That does not have to be an obstacle. If you have at least an average fitness level and you like dogs, you will learn how to use the sledge quickly. The necessary equipment for you and the dogs will be put at your disposal.

These tours are also suitable for young people from the age of 14 – provided that a parent or legal guardian is with them. Due to the small size of the groups, experienced guides can respond individually to every guest’s needs. We also have attractive trips for experienced dog sled guides, during which you can stay in the wilderness and are responsible for your dog team from start to finish. For sporty dog ​​lovers, this is a truly unique experience.

Dog sledding in Yukon

The Yukon Territory in north-western Canada owes its name to the Yukon River. This area is associated with trappers, gold miners and adventurers. Again, the region is sparsely populated with approximately just 0.06 inhabitants per square mile. However, wolves, bears and moose fare very well there. Most people live around Whitehorse – the capital of the territory. Since in former times the dog sledge was the only means of transport in the winter, sled dog breeding has a long tradition in this part of the world. Malamutes and huskies are tough and can pull fully loaded sledges through rough terrain – even in extreme weather conditions. Our sled dog tours in Yukon are aimed at adults over the age of 18 who have at least a normal fitness level. Experience with the dog sledge is not required. The trips are designed in a way that you first have the opportunity to get to know the dogs and then familiarise yourself with the driving technique. Afterwards, you can go on longer and more demanding tours. During these camp-to-camp tours, you will spend a few nights in the wilderness. Whether you choose a shorter or longer trip, you will certainly have a unique holiday experience.

Husky expeditions in Greenland

A dog sledding tour in Greenland is just the thing for adventurers over the age of 18, who do not care about comfort. On the Greenland tours you will drive over sea ice and frozen fjords. Winter tents are available for the overnight stays. The sledges used in Greenland and the type of harnessing of the dogs differ from the usual forms. So there are sleds in different sizes and shapes, depending on the purpose. The dogs are not stretched as a pair in a line, but fan-shaped in front of the sledge. Even the dogs themselves are a different breed than those used in Scandinavia or America. The Greenland Husky is more spirited and less peaceful. So these trips also offer experienced dog sled guides an interesting new challenge. But even those who have no experience with dog sleds can safely go on such a journey. The experienced guides will provide you with everything you need during the first days of the trip. On a husky tour in Greenland, the exact itinerary may depend on the weather, but you will definitely experience a unique landscape and visit small settlements in Greenland. Even the overnight stay in a camp in the wilderness is a unique experience. And with a little luck, you can also observe the Northern Lights.
