Rovaniemi: Husky Farm Visit with a Sledge Ride

Overview

Enjoy a ride through snowy landscapes, meet adorable Alaskan huskies, and learn about husky mushing from local guides on a tour with transportation from Rovaniemi.

Nothing captures the spirit of Lapland like a team of eager huskies pulling you through the frozen forest. At the kennel you'll meet the dogs, learn how to stand on the runners and brake, then set off across snow-covered trails and frozen lakes — either driving your own sled or riding wrapped in reindeer hides. Every tour ends with hot drinks by the fire and time to cuddle the puppies. Options range from family-friendly 2 km rides to full-day wilderness expeditions.
