Huskies are one of the most iconic dog breeds of Northern European countries. Get to know these beautiful creatures visiting a farm where they live, and experience a traditional dog sled ride!
Husky Kennel Visit
Following your hotel pick up, you'll leave the city centre behind and head into the snow-silenced expanse of forest which covers Lapland. After a brief bus ride, you'll arrive at your destination, ready to make some very special new friends.
Outside of Rovaniemi, the Siberian Husky park allows visitors to get to know these adorable dogs up close and personal. Discover fascinating facts about the breed, famous for their thick black, white and grey fur coats and their almost wolf-like appearance, and see how the farm cares for their particular needs and preferences. Did you know that huskies are one of the oldest dog breeds in the world?
Spend time with the beautiful dogs, including taking photos of them in their natural snowy habitat. Their handlers will also give you basic instructions on how to drive a sled pulled by huskies. Head to the reigns for this incredible experience!
After your sleigh ride, you'll enjoy a traditional snack and drink from this area of Finland while you learn yet more information about your new furry four-pawed pals. At the end of the activity, you'll return to your hotel in Rovaniemi.
If you'd prefer to go on a 10-kilometre ride, you can book this husky sleigh ride activity.
