All about the trip

Have you ever dreamed of dog sledding with huskies on snow? Want to tick this off your bucket list while you're in Iceland? Great news, this tour is for you!

We are located just outside Akureyri, surrounded by beautiful mountains and the longest fjord in Iceland, it's the perfect location. With these incredible landscapes around you, covered in a blanket of snow during the winter months, you will feel relaxed and at ease as you are pulled along by the huskies.

Our tours take place in different locations in the woodland around our home and all tours start from our doorsteps. While you sit back and take in the beautiful surroundings, and the power of the huskies pulling you through the countyside, your musher will tell you everything you need to know about dog sledding, how it works, their experience as a musher, more about the dogs' personalities, all the while answering all your questions about the huskies and Iceland.

After the sledding you are welcome into our home, where the huskies live, where you can have coffee, tea or hot chocolate and get lots of husky kisses. Huskies are among the friendliest breeds of dogs and love to cuddle. These warm animals love to meet new people and will, of course, expect a belly rub and some attention. The huskies are all just as cute as you'd imagine, and each has its distinct personality.
