Trois jours de chiens de traîneau, dans un petit groupe (4 personnes au total, et l’instructeur en plus), juste parfaits ! Deux arrêts pour passer la nuit dans des cabanes : la première rustique mais très agréable (sans eau ni électricité), la deuxième plus moderne et confortable. A chaque fois, au milieu de nulle part ce qui était extra !

Einfach nur Hammer! Man fühlt sich wie bei Jack London's Film Wolfsblut.

It was a fully comprehensive dog sledding tour. We got to harness and prepared our sleds each day which was incredible. The nights were spent at beautiful cabins in the Swedish wilderness.
