Husky Sled Ride - Northern Lights Tour in Tromsø

Join a dog sledding tour in the mild winter night. The experience can be magical, with the Northern Lights dancing through the sky or the moon shimmering on you. You will sit in a sled which is driven by an experienced guide.

Guided by headlamps and the dog’s nose you will go up into the mountains surrounding the wilderness center on Kvaløya, where, if you are lucky, the Northern Lights will dance through the sky. Get comfortable on the sledge covered with warm reindeer skins and enjoy being driven by an expert guide. You will share the sledge with another traveller. It is unfortunately not possible to drive your own team of huskies on the Northern Lights tour.

After approx. 45-60 minutes of dog sledding you will return to the ranch where you will have the opportunity to visit the puppies and meet more of the 350 huskies that the camp has. Inside a traditional Sami Tent (lavvo) you will be served Stock fish prepared with tomato sauce (Bacalao) with coffee and cake for dessert. While you eat, your guide will keep an eye on the sky to alarm you if Northern Lights appear.
