Husky rides in Lapland

Lapland Excursion Husky 2

Be a part of a long-standing tradition of Husky-sledding, a way for people to move across the land of ice and snow and transport their goods. Our Lapland Safaris are designed with you and your family in mind - to immerse yourself in Lapland life. 

Our Husky rides are great fun for all the family and are definitely worth participating in whilst you enjoy this once in a lifetime holiday experience. The huskies are always animated and ready to go. As soon as they are harnessed to their sleds, the sound of excited barking fills the air. The huskies are in their element as the sled glides across the pristine snow.

After some essential instruction you and your team of huskies will be on your way. Keeping in line along the trails, speeding through the wilderness and weaving through the deep forest in the low winter sun.

Our husky excursions have been tailor-made to suit all ages, experience and fitness levels. With the shorter safaris being the most popular, there are also longer half-day trips and an evening safari in search of the Northern Lights.
