The first night is in our lavvus (Sami wooden tent with raised sleeping area) each lavvu has a wood burning stove to keep it extra cosy. The rest of the trip will involve sleeping in expedition grade 2-man tents and cabins. You will have limited access to toilets/showers during the expedition itself. Your last night will be in a hotel in Tromsø city centre.

Your flights, travel insurance, personal expenses, drinks, snacks and your final night’s accommodation/meal in Tromsø. You may wish to also purchase extra lunch on your travel day back to Tromsø (budget 200NOK per person for this).

Between 8 and 10 guests. Our trips are very popular, so are usually sold out.

Certainly! This is a great way to meet like-minded people. Guests will share tents in pairs (males together and females together).

Meet people from all walks of life, solo travellers, couples, friendship groups all up for a challenge and with the desire to escape urban life!

Come as you are! We welcome all fitness/skill levels, most guests have never been dogsledding before. Please remember that this expedition is an active and hands-on trip. Your guides will help you to look after your dog team and set up your camp but the more you participate the better your experience will be.

You will be sledding for approximately 3-7 hours per day (with regular breaks). Stay focused on your dogs and the gangline, stay loose and relaxed, lean into the bends and enjoy the ride! Guests who have experience surfing, skateboarding or skiing will take to sledding easily.

You will experience ‘real Norwegian’ food from traditional Scandinavian meals to modern trail ‘boil in the bag’ meals. If you have any special dietary requirements just let us know.

As we sled through the remote mountains there is always a chance to be lucky and catch a glimpse of the Aurora. On days of bright sunshine and low cloud levels, when the night falls it is definitely worth popping your head out of the tent to check the sky!

The cold season lasts from early Nov to mid-March, with lows in January of around -10 degrees Celsius. In March/April/May you can expect temp of between 0 to 8 degrees Celsius. This means you can experience everything from snow, rain and sunshine all in one day!

We recommend that you have cover for overseas medical evacuation, baggage loss and that you are covered to take part in ‘adventure sports’ including dogsledding. It can be wise to also insure against incidents such as air strikes or delayed travel.
