Getting to know the dogs

You will get to know our huskies and find out how a sled dog team is structured and which dog runs in which position. You will also learn a lot about the special features of huskies and sled dogs.

Preparing the dogs for the sled ride

After a short theoretical briefing, we prepare the dogs for the ride and harness them. In the meantime, you can take a seat in the sled and watch the action from the sled. By now you'll notice how the dogs are getting more and more excited and can hardly wait for the ride to start. Then it's time to hurry before the dogs get too restless and everything has to happen quickly.

Go! We go on tour with the team

The start is always very quick, as the dogs can hardly wait to get going. We drive with the team for about 15 km and the dogs pull us through the snowy woods.

Husky cuddle after the tour

Back from the trail, we will unharness the dogs from the sled and you can help us if you like. You have the opportunity to feed the dogs a small snack, stroke them extensively and take souvenir photos

Minimum age 7 years

We take children aged 7 years on this tour. It is often too cold or too exciting for children under 7 years old or toddlers and the experience often ends in tears. However, we make exceptions if you can assure us that your child is very outdoorsy. Please get in touch with us in this case.

Physical requirements

It is very cramped on the sled and the sled is designed for maximum weight. You should be agile enough to get on and off the sled independently. The maximum weight per person is approx. 100 kg. For very tall people, the sled can be a little cramped. However, in our experience, up to a height of approx. 1.85 m it is quite possible if you can keep your legs close to your body. If you are not sure, please feel free to contact us.

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
