Arctic Husky Safari – 5 km
This tour is about connection, not performance. With just six sleds per group, we keep things personal: no herding guests through a queue or treating the dogs like photo props. You will actually get time to talk with the handlers, learn how the dogs are trained, and understand why they work best with their own mushers. Yes, you will drive a sled, but you will also drink something warm in a cozy kota while chatting about life in the north. It is not trying to be a fantasy, it is the real rhythm of a husky morning in Lapland.

Scenic Transfer to the Husky Farm
Sit back and enjoy the Arctic landscapes as we drive to the husky farm. Your guide will share insights about local life, huskies, and what to expect on arrival.
Husky Safari & Warm Break in a Traditional Kota
The group is split into two: one half begins with a short sled-driving lesson before heading off on the husky safari (5 km, about 10 to 15 min). Each sled fits two adults and one to two small children, and you can switch drivers at the halfway point. The other half heads into a cozy kota for warm drinks, biscuits, and an introduction to huskies and life with them. After the first group finishes, the groups switch places.
Meet the Huskies & Photo Time
After the rides, everyone gets a chance to meet, pet, and take photos with the friendly huskies. This is a perfect moment to bond with the dogs and capture memories.
Transfer Back to Rovaniemi
Relax during the return transfer to Rovaniemi. Drop-off is available at your accommodation or back at our office, depending on your preference.
