Enjoy an approximately 2 hour snowmobile ride and the winter landscapes. At some scenic spots we make a stop for some photos. After snowmobiling, we will take you to a local husky kennel, where the dogs are waiting to take you on a 5km self-driven ride.
You are warmly welcome to enjoy this traditional way of travelling in the Arctic. Two people share one sled, and during the safari, you can change the driver. Children are sitting on the sled during the safari.
The husky sleigh ride is about 45 minutes. In addition to the husky sleigh ride, you can spend time with the dogs and learn more about them. Huskies are friendly dogs that love their job!
* If due to weather conditions, the access to Husky Kennel can't be guaranteed by snowmobiles, both activities will be separated and accessed by car.
Total program is 4-5h. 4.5h is the actual time of the excursion.

Snowmobile safaris:
The driver of a snowmobile must be at least 18 years of age and have a valid driver’s license in immediate possession.
Children travel in a sledge pulled by the guide’s snowmobile. In case a child prefers to travel as a passenger of a snowmobile, he / she must be tall enough to reach the handles and treads and strong enough to hold on tight. When a child travels on the snowmobile and not in a sledge pulled by a snowmobile, adult price (2 person / snowmobile) applies.
The snowmobiles and you as the snowmobile driver or passenger are covered by our insurance. The self-liability on damage of snowmobiles is max. 1 500 € / snowmobile. With a self-liability waiver (20 €) you reduce the self-liability to max 350€ / snowmobile. Every safari starts with instructions on driving and safety.
