Private Half Day Husky Tour on a Small Farm
Private husky adventure on a tiny sled dog farm
NEW 2024/25: A small pack of 10 sled dogs is happily living with their owner family by a lake down in Venejärvi, Kolari. Actually, we wouldn't call this a dog farm – instead, it's family, consisting of dogs and their pawrents to whom the welfare of their dogs is of utmost importance.
Here you won't find big tourist groups but it's always just one or two of you, the dogs and the owner. The ~15 km trail flows on hilly terrain, forests and swamps, far from anything else. After the ride, there is no rush: have fun with the dogs, enjoy the delicious soup lunch, and – if you like – relax in the traditional lake-side, wood-heated sauna before heading back to your accommodation.
Duration: ~3h, including instructions, safari, unleashing the dogs together, hanging out with the pack and soup lunch
Price: 400€/person, two per sled, max. 2 people!
Additionals: traditional wood-heated lake-side sauna with ice-dipping option 1h +150€ / 2 pax & transfers 320€ / 2 pax (75 km from Äkäslompolo). Other customization opportunities also be possible – just ask!
