Description:
With our Weekend Adventure package you can get a taste of the dog sledding lifestyle. Become a musher for a weekend. Take care of your own dogs and feel the thrill of racing across the pristine Finnmark Mountain Plateau. Staying in a traditional mountain cabin, you’ll get a sense of what life is like up in the north. It is a freedom like no other, with Arctic nature stretching out as long as the eye can see. You’ll take care of your own team of huskies, just like other mushers do. From feeding to harnessing, you’ll do it all. And if you’re lucky, the night sky will be filled with dancing, northern lights. Why don’t you join us?
