Full description

Embark on a guided sledding experience from Tromsø. Take turns directing the sled or simply enjoy the incredible Arctic scenery. After, trade stories around a warm fire with some hot chocolate and cake.

Hop on the comfortable minibus and drive to the kennel on the island of Kvaløya. Once kitted out, head to the kennel and see the 130 Alaskan Huskies, who are always excited to meet guests.

Get a short demonstration on how to drive a sled and feel free to ask any questions. Then, follow your guide and meet your huskies. Each pair, one passenger, and one driver will have their own sled. Enjoy several opportunities to swap between roles once the trip starts. Finally, head out to the snow and follow the guide along the trail. Take photos throughout the trip and take in the incredible landscapes. After your 90-minute sledding adventure, make your way into the Sami Lavvo for hot drinks and Hege's famous homemade chocolate cake.

This adventurous tour was so amazing, can't forget. From right of the beginning from transportation to the place, guide explaning about the sled riding. In the end we were served with coffee/team and hot chocolates. Last but not least the alaskan Huskies were so friendly that you can play with them.

A very exhilarating and enjoyable experience. Well organised, good timing, we were given time to really appreciate the experience and to get the most from it. Both people and dogs so wonderfully friendly, welcoming and sincere. I just loved every minute of it and couldn’t fault it. Thank you so much to everyone involved.

The dog sledding tour was an unforgettable experience. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and ensured our safety and comfort throughout the tour. Working with the well-trained and well-cared for dogs was amazing, and the scenery was breathtaking. It was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that I highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. Five stars all around!
