Activity description
Join Arctic Lifestyle for a fun-filled husky safari in Finland's beautiful winter wonderland! A perfect family-friendly activity, especially for the animal lovers in your group, as you'll be able to spend time with the adorable husky team!
Enjoy the great outdoors while being pulled on a sled and, for the more adventurous, you will also have the opportunity to take a turn driving the dog sled yourself!
This two-hour experience begins with your guide picking you up at one of the listed meeting points, which is arranged after each booking is made. After a short drive to the Husky Farm, you'll be outfitted in winter gear, and receive a brief introduction to "mushing" (leading a dog sled team) including the equipment, ie. the husky sled. Then the adventure begins, and you'll enjoy a 5 km (3 miles) dog sled ride through a snow-covered forest!
All our safaris include pick-up service from Rovaniemi city center, Santa Claus Village and Ounasvaara. From hotels and accommodations in and around Rovaniemi city center, the guests are asked to walk to our safari house. From the safari-house we shuttle to our snowmobile site or depart for the excursion.
The mentioned duration of the safari is the actual time of the excursion. The total duration is approximately 60-90 minutes longer than the mentioned duration, as we transfer and equip you. Please be advised that the exact time for pick-ups will be communicated once you have booked.
