Full description
Feel the thrill of mushing your own team of huskies through pristine Arctic wilderness on this unforgettable daytime dog sledding adventure from Tromsø to Tamok. Enjoy a scenic transfer as you leave the city behind for majestic snowy landscapes. Gear up in toasty thermal clothing, meet a friendly pack of huskies, and learn the basics of sled driving from expert guides. Experience both the excitement of riding and the joy of mushing as you switch roles halfway through. Warm up with a hearty hot meal and drinks in the cozy wilderness camp before heading back, buzzing with Arctic memories and stories to share.
This daytime dog sledding adventure begins with a pickup in central Tromsø and a scenic drive through Arctic landscapes to the remote Tamok wilderness. Upon arrival, participants are split into two groups: while one gears up and receives instructions before heading out to drive the dog sled, the other meets the huskies, visits the dog yard, and enjoys a hot meal and drinks. Halfway through the sledding journey, riders switch roles to experience both mushing and riding. The terrain is generally flat and open for comfort, but some fitness and good balance are necessary to assist the huskies when needed. After the adventure and time at the camp, participants return to Tromsø, reflecting on their Arctic wilderness experience.
