Highlights
Outing Highlights
Big huskysled for small groups or a single family
Guides run the safari with a large huskysled configured so 3–4 adults sit in line together, or one family shares the same sled—an arrangement that keeps the experience communal and close to the dogs.
Hunt for the Northern Lights
The safari takes place at night through quiet winter scenery with the aim of spotting the aurora; success depends on conditions and luck, but the journey itself is built around the hunt for the lights.
Open‑fire snacks and hot drinks
After the sled run the programme concludes with snacks and hot drinks served by an open fire, a warm, social finish to the night.
