1st Day: Arrival in Merasjärvi
Fly to Kiruna and transfer to Huskykompaniet Huskyfarm. Move into the guest cabins directly on the farm. You will be welcomed with a dinner in a cosy family atmosphere. We will discuss the planned course of our tour and answer any questions.
2nd Day: The first sled tour
After a rich hearty breakfast, our adventure begins. We then introduce you to the dogs; the first time you get to know the dogs, you will be instructed in the handling of sled dogs and the knowledge of sledding. The dog teams will then be divided and get prepared together. Then we head out into the wilderness! We will cover approximately 21 km throughout the day before arriving at a secluded location that will be our overnight wilderness camp. Once the dogs are settled and fed, we will cook a nice hot meal to enjoy together around the campfire.
3rd-4thth Days: Tours through the last wilderness of Lapland
Over these days we will travel over frozen lakes and through the forests of Lapland. We will enjoy the majestic beauty of this frozen wilderness, exploring together with our faithful dogs. No two days will be alike, and you will see many different things on your adventure! We will cover a distance of some 30 km, and spend our evenings enjoying a soothing traditional sauna. Each tour is adapted individually to the respective weather conditions because a diverse tour programme is very important to us.
5th Day: Discover Lapland
On the 5th day, we will return to the Husky Farm. Today can be spent at your leisure. Available activities include snowshoeing, ice fishing, a guided snowmobile tour or a sleigh ride.
6th Day: Journey Home
After a final breakfast together, we will say goodbye to Kiruna and head back to the airport, where you will catch your onwards flight. You will leave with plenty of fantastic memories to cherish and great stories to tell when you arrive home!
Travellers: We can fit about 8 people in a guest hut on the farm and the wilderness camp has plenty of space.

Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary is exemplary and may vary, while the activities being performed as described. The exact order of the activities you will receive on-site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first. For this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (lack of snow) and too much snow (snowstorms, extreme cold). The necessary adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the current day conditions and can be compensated by shorter stages and in very rare cases by adjustments to the vehicle (wheels, ATV).
