Narvik: Dogsledding with Husky Isogaisa｜Norway

Did you know that a sled dog can run up to 500 kilometers in just a few days? That's the same distance as from London to Paris! After some food and rest, the dogs are ready to run back again. Why? Because sled dogs love to run!

At Husky Isogaisa, you can experience this up close. Before we start, we provide you with thorough training in English on how to drive a dog sled. The safety of both you and the dogs is our top priority. Then, you and your partner will be given a sled with 4 to 6 dogs, where one drives and the other sits in the sled. Ready, set, go!

Halfway through, we take a short break so the dogs can rest. Here, you'll also have the opportunity to switch places with your partner and take pictures. The tour is led by an experienced guide with their own dog team, ensuring you have a safe and unforgettable experience.

When the tour is over, we thank each dog for their effort – the huskies love it! You'll feel like you've made a new, four-legged friend. Afterward, we go over what it means to be involved in dog sledding and how we take care of the animals.

After the adventure, we serve lunch and warm drinks in a cozy, heated lavvu (Sami tent).

The dog sledding itself lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, and you'll have the chance to drive yourself. Remember, to drive the sled, you must be able to run in the snow. We can also divide you into two groups if needed.

Welcome to an experience you won't soon forget at Husky Isogaisa!
