Be brave to drive your husky sled, it is easy and full of emotions.
During this program, you will go on a self-guided husky safari on a 10-15 km track. The approximate safari time is about 45-60 min. Safari time varies, as it always includes a stop-over and is dependent on the weather conditions the dogs are running in.
During the stop-over, a musher and passenger can change places. The trip by car to the husky kennel takes about 40 min from Rovaniemi city center. Upon arrival, you will get complete instructions for driving (mushing) the dog sled on your own and then immediately start the safari. The kennel is located by beautiful Ylinampa lake which is surrounded by hills.
The trail runs around the coastline. It is easy to drive, but very beautiful. The area is uninhabited (by humans), so we have a good chance to see wild animals and tracks. After the ride, your host will welcome you inside a cozy teepee where they can warm up around the open fire and have a hot drink.
The host will talk about life with the dogs and answer any questions you may have. Option: You can choose to drive a single sledge alone for an extra charge (supplement for s single sledge).
