Experience

Highlights

  • Enjoy a husky sled ride through wintery scenery
  • Be the musher and drive your own sled
Full description

Meet and mush with your new howling, furry friends on this safari adventure. Huskies are one of the most beloved animals of the North, and you’ll understand why as soon as you meet the pack. Pet them, pose with them for photos, and listen to stories about their lives.   Then, take a 7- to 10-kilometer long husky sled ride, where you get to be the musher yourself. This means you can control the pack of huskies towing the sled.

The dogs absolutely love pulling loads and running on the trail across the forests. Feel the thrill of the ride and the cool wind on your face as you tear through the forests.   Finish off with a hot drink before saying goodbye to your new friends.

We had a nice experience. The tour is well organised and the staff was really nice! The dogs are so cute and we had the chance to ask a lot of questions Just if I can say, I had no blanket and was really cold in the slug and we didn't had the chance to cuddle with the poppies. Also the tour is a little short for the price. At the end it was a nice tour but a little bite short

Was an amazing safari. The guides were very nice and careful about the dogs. The dogs were just happy to go on a safari. The dogs were all very happy and in a good mood. In the beginning I was scared that this will be just a tourist attraction and that dogs are not treated properly. But it was just not the case. I can recommend the safari with appuka adventures.

Truly amazing and magical experience. We have experienced several tour companies and this was by far the most professional. Picked up from Rovaniemi town centre on time. Friendly guide who took the time to learn guest's names and origins. About 20mins bus ride to Apukka, where you are given overalls, boots, socks etc. Huskies were amazing! You can tell that they really cared for, ride itself was amazing - 2 adults to one sledge (one sat and one stood up where you ride the sledge yourself, with opportunity to change drivers mid-way). Ride itself is about 45mins to 1hr. Warm berry drink after with further information about the huskies by our guide. We even got to cuddle with 3 month old puppies.
