The cold air is filled with the warm breath of our huskies as they run along an exciting forest trail away from the tourist kennels. Half-way, we stop at our lávvu, a traditional Sami style tipi, where you will warm yourself around a roaring fire with a steaming mug of coffee or hot chocolate in your hands, served with homemade apple cake. The scenery that surrounds you is beautiful, and with plenty of time to cuddle the dogs. W

This is a perfect tour for families, couples and individuals where you sit on a sled driven by a professional guide, so you can relax and enjoy time in nature with our friendly huskies. Our kennel is just 10 minutes outside of Kiruna and yet it feels like a different world far away from crowds.
