Husky Safari in Kirkenes (13:00)
★ 4.5 · 1505 reviewsBy The Arctic Resort Company AS



Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in Kirkenes (Thon or Scandic) and transfer to the Snow Resort Kirkenes camp, located just outside town. After suiting up in warm overalls, mittens, balaclava, and boots, meet the friendly huskies and hear from your musher about how the team works and their care routines.
The sled route is approximately 10 km, taking you across frozen fjords and through lightly forested Arctic landscapes. You’ll have a rest stop along the way, where you can warm up, listen to stories from your guide, and let the dogs recover. There may also be opportunity (weather permitting) to take the reins yourself and steer the sled for a stretch.
Return to the Snow Resort Kirkenes camp, with transfer back to your hotel to conclude the excursion.
Highlights
- Ride a dog sled across fjord ice and through Arctic wilderness.
- Meet, learn about, and interact with Alaskan huskies and expert mushers.
- Chance to drive the sled yourself during part of the tour (if conditions allow).
