Night in a Timber Tee‑Pee: Back-to‑Basics Sleep at Sirdal Huskyfarm.
Tucked into the forest at Sirdal Huskyfarm near Tonstad, the Tee‑Pee Cabin offers a rough, back‑to‑basics overnight in shelters hewn from the farm’s own timber. The cabins forgo electricity and running water so guests trade modern conveniences for close contact with the animals and rhythms of life on a working husky farm.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Built from the Farm, Processed on the Farm
The tee‑pee cabins are constructed from timber harvested in the farm’s own forest and milled on site—an explicit focus on re‑use, sustainability and reducing footprint in nature.
Simple, Back‑to‑Basics Shelter
Standards are intentionally simple: the cabins contain mattresses but have no electricity or running water. Guests use nearby toilet, shower and kitchen facilities and are expected to bring their own sleeping bag or duvet and bedding.
Included Visit to the Dog Kennel
An included visit to the dog kennel puts you close to the huskies and day‑to‑day life on the farm; the operator also recommends combining the stay with activities such as Huskyfarm Adventure or the Wilderness Spa.
