Comfortable Husky Holiday in Finland: The itinerary
Day 1: Arrival
Upon arrival at the airport, you will be warmly welcomed and a transfer will take you to the lodge where you will be staying the next few days. Settle in without any rush and end this first day with a traditional homemade Finnish dinner.
Day 2: Your first husky safari
After a hearty breakfast, you will receive information about the tour program and the adventures that lie ahead over the next few days. You will be equipped with the clothes appropriate for polar temperatures and get to know the surrounding area. Your first trip with your four-legged companions will be all about learning and perfecting the technique of dog sledding. After a short introduction and safety briefing, you will get on the slopes of the sled and head out into the wilderness of Finland for a test drive of about 13 km. Enjoy the breathtaking views and be enchanted by the beauty of nature. Back at the lodge you can enjoy a delicious dinner and unwind in your private sauna.

Day 3: Husky day safari into the wilderness
Today’s route takes you through some 25 km to 35 km of snow-covered forests, frozen lakes, and open fields. Enjoy the silence that surrounds you during these 4 to 6 hours – only interrupted by the paws of the huskies on the snow underfoot. Lunch is served around the campfire in a cosy atmosphere. After the huskies have been taken care of, you will return to the lodge for a delicious dinner.
Day 4: Safari to a wilderness cabin
On this day you will set out into the wilderness and prepare for a night in a cosy rustic cabin. Passing unbelievable views and beautiful winter landscapes en route, you will forget everyday life for a while as you soak in this magical winter world. Lunch will be prepared at a campfire under the open sky. In the cabin there is a sauna waiting for you, which will do you some good after this eventful day. But first you take care of the dogs together as a team. There is no electricity, running water, showers or indoor toilets - a real wilderness experience! Prepare dinner together and enjoy the evening with your travel group. Over a delicious hot meal, share your favorite experiences and afterwards, with a bit of luck, you will be able to see the magical Northern Lights dancing in the sky.
Day 5: Back to Civilization
After a nice breakfast, prepare your dogs together and get back on the runners of your husky sled. Your enthusiastic companions are looking forward to seeing you, as they do every day, and will be ready to go on another tour through the wilderness. Relax on your final ride and take in the beauty of nature. Back at the lodge, you will move into a unique glass roof sky cabin. During your stay, you will have the opportunity to attend a Northern Lights evening. In a traditional Kota, you will enjoy stunning pictures of the Polar lights beside a warm fire and with a hot drink. This Northern Lights evening is a great opportunity to get a deep insight into the topic of the Northern Lights and learn a lot about the myths around this natural spectacle.
Day 6 & 7: Free day
Use these days at leisure to round off the program according to your ideas and personal wishes. Relax in the smoke sauna (included one afternoon during your stay) or actively explore the surrounding area. Many excursions and activities that you can book if you are interested can be found under "Extras".
Day 8: Departure
After a final breakfast, a transfer will take you back to the airport. It will be sad to see you go, but you will take with you some incredible memories of a dreamlike Husky vacation. You will certainly remember this unique experience for a long time to come!
Accommodation:
You will spend 3 nights in a cosy apartment with private sauna. The hotel is built entirely of wood and conveys a traditional and authentic atmosphere. You will spend one night in a shared wilderness cabin without running water, electricity and indoor toilet. However, an outdoor toilet and sauna are available. For 3 further nights you will be accommodated in a glass-roofed sky cabin. This cabin is located directly at the idyllic lake Jokijärvi and has a glass roof, a luxury bed, a toilet, a shower, a fridge, free Wi-Fi and its own sauna. After mid-January it is also possible to spend a night in an igloo (depending on weather conditions).
Important information
On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, there is a special Christmas tour program. For New Year's Eve, there is an exclusive package that includes a New Year's Eve party in a Finnish Kota.
Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc). Feel free to contact us if you would like a more detailed assessment of this tour and travel period.The service providers and tour providers always perform their services in compliance with and in accordance with the official requirements and requirements applicable at the time of stay. For this reason, corona-related reasonable usage rules or restrictions may arise when using said services. Please note these official requirements (Google Translate).

Januar 2024 - Ein wunderschöner Urlaub
Ein unverbindlicher und einzigartiger Urlaub. Die Huskys, die direkt neben der Unterkunft leben, waren unser absolutes Highlight. Das Programm ist sehr abwechslungsreich und vielfältig. Warme Klamotten wie bspw. Skianzüge und Schuhe sind in den unterschiedlichsten Größen vorhanden. Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und gemütlich. Jedes Zimmer hat eine eigene Sauna im Badezimmer. Auch die Rauchsauna auf dem Gelände ist ein Erlebnis.
