Dog Sledding on Wheels in Skibotn Valley

This tour is operated by Activenorth.

Experience dog sledding on wheels on a day trip from Tromsø to Skibotn Valley, travelling with a team of energetic Alaskan huskies.

Two guests share each cart. One person drives while the other rides as a passenger, and an experienced guide leads the group in a separate cart.

The dog sledding lasts approximately 60 minutes. There will be a stop along the way, giving you time to take photographs and spend some time with the dogs.

Lunch is served in connection with the tour. Group 1 goes dog sledding first and has lunch afterwards, while Group 2 has lunch first and starts dog sledding at 11:30 AM (11:30).
