Description

Meet the huskies and go for a dog sled ride through the forests of Lapland!

You'll enjoy a transfer to a husky farm and meet the breeders, from the Sami people, an indigenous people of Lapland. They'll teach you more about life on the farm and make you feel at ease with the dogs.

After a privileged moment of exchange with the huskies, you'll put on extreme-cold equipment (wetsuit, boots, gloves and hat) and settle aboard a sled.

You'll set off on an unforgettable dog sled ride. For 10 kilometers, you'll crisscross Lapland's snow-covered plateaus, frozen lakes and discover real postcard scenery.

On your return to the farm, you'll enjoy a convivial moment over a Lappish snack of gingerbread and hot blueberry juice, a must-have drink in Lapland.

You'll be driven back to Rovaniemi after a unique activity.
