Enjoy a active self driven half day husky safari in the northern wilderness. You have the change to get hands on and participate in harnessing the dogs and mush your own team of Alaskan huskies through the snowy landscape. 3,5h program with 1,5h self driven husky tour including high quality thermal clothing and snacks and hot drinks by the campfire.
When you come to Husky Ranch Lapland you will be greeted by your guide and the other owners of the ranch Juho and Hanna. First you will get a quality thermal clothing including parka jacket, pants, boots and mittens. After the driving instructions you are ready to meet your team of well-trained Alaskan huskies! You can either drive your own sled (single sled) or share a sled with your friend (shared sled). You can change the driver at the midpoint of the tour. The trail heads first south of the Kurtakko village through the snowy forests and then you take a peek at Europe's biggest wetland Teuravuoma. The drive itself takes from 1h 15 minutes to 2h depending on the weather conditions.
We take the coffee/snack break after the tour by the fireplace next to the dog yard. There is also time to cuddle and say good bye to the lovable dogs after the tour! The price includes quality thermal clothing. Pick up and drop off from Äkäslompolo/Ylläsjärvi with extra charge.
