Start in the morning

After welcoming you at the kennel, we take our time to introduce you to the two activities. You will get to know the dogs and receive a detailed introduction to dog sledding. We will also show you how to handle the snowmobile and explain everything important for the upcoming tour. You will then split into two groups: Two participants start with the dog sled, the other two travel by snowmobile on a separate route.

First stage

The dog sled tour takes you over a route of around 15 to 17 kilometers through snow-covered forests and over frozen lakes. At the same time, the snowmobilers are out and about on a 20-kilometer route - on winter paths, through forests and across wide open spaces. Both routes run separately so that everyone can enjoy their own experience in peace.

Picnic around the campfire

At lunchtime, both groups meet at our tipi by the lake. A warming campfire is already waiting for you there. With hot drinks and small regional snacks, you can fortify yourselves, warm up and enjoy the special atmosphere in the middle of the wilderness.

Change

After the break, you switch vehicles: those who were on a dog sled in the morning now drive a snowmobile - and vice versa. This way, each participant gets both experiences on this tour.

Return journey on new routes

On the way back, both groups take new routes through the winter landscape. Back at the kennel, we end the day comfortably - perhaps with a fika, a Swedish coffee break, and time to say goodbye to the dogs.

Minimum age 18 years

You must be at least 18 years old to be allowed to drive a sled yourself.

Basic physical fitness

You should have a certain degree of mobility and no balance or coordination problems. We will be walking a total of approx. 25 km and you will be outside for 6 hours and the temperature may well be -25°C. And these cold temperatures alone demand a lot from you. And these cold temperatures alone are quite demanding if you are not used to them. You should also be able to support your dog team on uphill sections by pushing the sled along or pedaling with one leg.

A maximum body weight of approx. 100 kg

The upper weight limit is approx. 100 kg per person so as not to overburden our dogs. If the weight is higher, please contact us.

No fear of the dogs

You will come into direct contact with our sled dogs, who may even jump on you.

Wear warm clothing that is suitable for the weather

Do not use cotton for socks and thermal underwear, as it does not protect you as well from the Arctic cold and you will freeze much faster in it.

If it is very cold, it is advisable to wear several thin layers.

A little more is better than too little. Clothing can also be stowed in the sled bag.

We recommend the following clothing:

Long thermal underwear made of wool

Thick woolen socks

Warm wool hat

A pair of thermal trousers

Thick winter gloves or mittens

Thick wool sweater or fleece sweater

A warm winter jacket

A thin buff or face protection made of wool

Face cream if necessary

Sunglasses if necessary

We can also provide you with the following clothing if required

Overtrousers suitable for polar conditions

Very warm down jacket in S, M and XL

Thick gloves for sledging

Thermal boots

We need the normal shoe and clothing size in advance. The outerwear is then one to two sizes larger than normal so that there is still enough room for additional layers underneath. At temperatures down to -30°C and colder, 3 to 4 layers are necessary to stay warm

Safe experience

Depending on the weather conditions, the program items must be adapted. It should be a safe and fun experience for two and four-legged friends! In principle, the tours take place in all weather and snow conditions. However, if it is not possible to carry out the booked program properly on the day of the event due to force majeure or if the program endangers people and dogs, an alternative offer will be made.

We adapt to you!

It is important to us that everyone can take part in the tours within their physical and mental capabilities. The activities can be adapted at any time!

Liability

Participation in our events is at your own risk and responsibility due to their adventurous nature. Events of this kind take place in the great outdoors, where every stay is associated with certain risks.

Despite the professional and safe execution of the activities, accidents involving personal injury and/or damage to property cannot be ruled out. No liability is assumed for accidents.
