Husky Safari – born to run

A perfect way to enjoy the thrill of mushing your own team of huskies together with your family. Nothing makes these dogs more excited than pulling a sled through the artic forest tracks just outside Rovaniemi, Finnish Lapland. 

When you arrive to the husky camp at the Wilderness Resort you will first meet the dogs and your guide, learn how to drive your sled and then head off for a thrilling dog sledding adventure through the magical forest.
