Full description

Barrel through the snowy Swedish Lapland countryside on a guided dog sled adventure as the sky transitions to dusky evening hues. Learn how to handle the dogs yourself on this sustainable method of transportation that dates back to 1980 BC. Take a well-deserved break next to an open fire in a Nordic tent. Get started in Kalixforsbron, where you will meet the dogs and get dressed in the warm winter clothing and shoes that are provided. Learn how to handle and harness the dogs. Benefit from a detailed safety briefing before heading off into the snowy landscape under the sparkling polar night sky. Work together with the well-trained huskies while being pulled through the white blanketed wilderness along the Kalix River. Afterward, warm up around an open fire in a Nordic ten with a traditional Swedish Fika.

The dog sled tour was a great experience on a beautiful trail. It had everything from a scenic landscape to fun falling off the sledge on the snow a few times. The guide was great and very helpful. And most importantly the dogs are well looked after and cared for and a lot of attention is given on how to handle them during the tour sledging. We as well as the dogs seem to have had fun. Overall a great experience. Hint: Pickup and drop off is only from a place in Kiruna town itself. Anywhere staying outside you need to take a taxi to town.
