Husky Safari Tour

Flights, arrivals and transfers. On arrival at Kittila Airport you will be driven to the Wilderness Centre for a welcome meal.

Five day husky safari. After breakfast on Monday you will be provided with all the necessary equipment, including thermal clothing and then taken to meet the dogs. You will be taught how to handle your team and the sled and after lunch you depart into one of Europe's few remaining wilderness areas. The huskies will pull your sled through the beautiful winter scenery close to the Pallas-Ounas National Park in Western Lapland. You will pass through forests, across fells and over frozen lakes and rivers covering up to 40km per day. Only the "swish" of the sled's runners breaking through the snow will disturb the perfect silence and you very quickly realise that you have well and truly left behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Overnight stays are in simple but cosy wilderness cabins with no showers, indoor WC or electricity. However, you can relax in some style while dinner is cooking on an open fire as a sauna is always available. Everybody takes care of their own dogs. Breakfasts and dinners are prepared together. Lunches are eaten by open fires on the trail. This far north there is a great chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis and with no light pollution whatsoever the night time sky may provide a picture show that will remain imprinted in your mind forever. Sometimes we have to drag people back into the cabins! After lunch on Friday, the final leg of your wilderness journey takes you back to the relative civilisation of the Wilderness Centre.

Free day, optional activities or Lainio Snow Village. After the exertions of your wilderness adventure you may just want a day to relax in the spa and reflect on the experience of the last few days. Alternatively, you can book additional activities. This year we've added the possibility of staying overnight in a snow hotel at Lainio Snow Village.
