Embark on a 3-hour dog sledding adventure through the old pine forests and frozen lakes of the Swedish Lapland, complemented by local favors! Ideal for families, and groups of friends!

This activity will see you straight from your accommodation to the wonderful winter wonderland of Oinakka! Pick-up is provided from Kiruna, and you can also choose to met your guide directly at their base in Oinakka, just outside of Kiruna, and near the world's original Icehotel.

Once there, you will meet your new furry friends, and get ready to set off into the snow. The sled is controlled by an experienced musher, all you have to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride! The wooden sled is equipped with reindeer fur to keep you nice and warm as you glide through the white old pine tree forests, past frozen lakes and swamps. What better way to experience the magic of the Swedish Lapland?

Along the way, you will make a stop to rest the dogs and relax by the roaring fire. Warm your fingers around a hot cup of coffee or tea, and taste the traditional Swedish Fika before heading back onto the snow! Your guide will also share some fascinating stories about the region, the Sami culture, and the wildlife in the area.

Then it is time to make your way back to the kennel. Marvel at the captivating white-washed landscapes of the Swedish wilderness, while being pulled by an energetic pack of Alaskan huskies. Once you're back at the kennel, it is time to cuddle one last time your four-legged friends, and leave Kiruna with lifelong memories!

Next time I would probably be more interested in learning how to drive a sled, as it seems like fun.

I was picked up from my accommodation on time. The dog sledding location was beautiful and the dogs were really sweet. I enjoyed getting to know their personalities and playing with them after the ride.

It was absolutely amazing!!! Beautiful to see the interaction between dogs and humans and the track itself was magical to experience.

Amazing experience, driving a dog sled on a frozen river. The dogs were lovely and full of joy, both our Mushers (Aaron and I think Dimitri) were nice and explained all about dog sledding, living in the north, and cultural aspects,...in a Tipi in the middle of a swamp they build a fire and served us coffee, tea, hot chocolate and toasted cinnamon buns. Pick up and drop off were on time and with very friendly drivers.
