5 km Husky Tour

Experience the thrill of leading your own team of huskies through the winter landscape! The husky musher will meet you at the Safartica office and take you to the kennel where the Alaskan Huskies will be waiting to greet you. The Safartica office is located across the street from your hotel (about a 2 minute walk). Before the safari begins, the husky musher will show you how to drive your own sled. Enjoy the surrounding nature and the silence while the huskies take you on an unforgettable ride. After the husky ride, we return to the kennel to hear facts and stories about the huskies and enjoy hot drinks around the campfire.

What is included?

Visit to the husky kennel, 20-30 minutes husky sled ride over 5 km, 2 people per team, children in sled, hot drinks with biscuits, guided tour in English.

Please note

The programme takes place between 1 December and 31 March (weather permitting). On arrival at the Safartica office, which is diagonally opposite the lodge (approx. 2 minutes walk), you will be given the meeting point and time. The safari will start as soon as the group is dressed and ready to go.

**Please contact the Safartica office on the day of your arrival to receive the relevant information for your activities**.

Northern Lights Photo Tour

Dreaming of seeing the Northern Lights? Then it's time to hop on a bus and head to the areas with the best chances of seeing the Northern Lights. With clear skies and a bit of luck, we could see them dancing in the sky! Along the way, the guide will take photos of us to keep as souvenirs and can give tips on night photography for those who bring their own cameras. In between, we'll enjoy hot drinks and gingerbread while we watch the sky.

What is included?
Coach travel, approximately 150 km to the best Northern Lights spots, hot drinks with gingerbread, photography and access to photos via an online link, guided tour in English.


To note:
The Northern Lights are an unpredictable natural phenomenon and our evening safaris are designed to give you a chance to see them. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that they will appear.

Parents: Please consider whether this activity is suitable for your young children due to the outdoor nature and late hour.

You will be given the meeting place/time on arrival at the Safartica office, which is diagonally opposite the lodge (approx. 2 minutes walk). The safari will start as soon as the group is dressed and ready to go.
