Musher for a day – a full day of dog sledding

Musher for a day

Musher for a day

This tour is suitable for more active individuals who want the experience of running your own dog sled for a whole day, supervised by a guide. The tour runs in hilly terrain over mountains, down in valleys, over marshes and ice covered lakes. The tour is a bit more demanding than our shorter rides. It’s good if you have a base fitness so you can help the dogs in the climbs. You don’t need to have any prior experience of dog sledding to complete the tour.

At the kennel you are welcomed by our guide and if needed you put on warm outdoor clothes and gear to borrow. You meet the dogs and get a detailed description of how to handle the dog sled. You help to get the dogs ready. You run your own team during the entire tour. During the tour we make a longer stop where we make a fire in the snow and eat lunch.
