Advanced Dog Sledding Daytime - Including Transport
Drive your own dog sled through snowy terrain, surrounded by spectacular Arctic scenery!

Embark on an exciting journey departing from the city center of Tromsø by bus. After a 90-minute relaxing bus journey, you will enter the remote area Tamokdalen where our wilderness camp is located.
Upon arrival at Camp Tamok, you will be warmly greeted by your guide and outfitted with the essential gear including thermal suits, boots, and gloves, ensuring comfort and warmth for the adventure ahead. After preparations and necessary instructions on how to control and steer the sled, the main attraction awaits: set off on your unforgettable dog sledding adventure!
On the dog sled ride, you will pair up with another guest, with two of you sharing a sled. One takes on the role of musher, guiding a team of energetic huskies through the snowy terrain, while the other enjoys the ride seated on the sled. Halfway, you will have the chance to switch roles, allowing each person to experience both the thrill of leading a team of huskies and the joy of being a passenger.
After the dog sled ride, you will have the opportunity to visit our dog yard and indulge in some cuddle time with the huskies. To complete the experience, you can relax with a warm meal and drink by the open fire inside one of the lávvu (indigenous Sámi tent).
After the meal, is time to board the bus again for your return to Tromsø. Get comfortable and take a moment to reflect on your day's our in the Arctic wilderness before arriving back to the city center of Tromsø.
About your dog sledding activity
This advanced dog sledding adventure has been labelled as a challenging activity with high difficulty level. Some parts of the trail can be covered with a fresh layer of snow or go uphill, meaning you will have to help the dogs push the sled while continously running.
Additionally, the trail can be narrow and have sharp bends, requiring a good balance to steer the sled. Therefore, to participate in this tour, it is necessary for all guests to display great strength, fitness and overall physical condition.
Our guides are entitled to deny drivers and passengers to join this tour out of health and safety reason.
