Arctic Dog Sledding

To provide our client’s access to the widest possible choice of dog sledding experiences we offer a range of different tours operated from of two key base locations in the Finnmark region of Arctic Norway - Kirkenes and Karasjok.

Kirkenes Tours

"One of worlds 25 best adventure destinations in 2008, by National Geographic"

One set of tours and expeditions are based out of Kirkenes in North Eastern Norway.  Here we also offer a range of more bespoke dog sledding opportunities.  These involve travel in the area of the Parsvik National Park (home to the largest population of brown bears in Europe) and the territory around the Russian and Finnish Boarders and can be combined with King Crab fishing and eating.  These trips can also involve base accommodation in traditional bed & breakfast, wooden cabins or multi day cabin to cabin treks.

In addition to these trips, we have the Pasvik Tour of the Year.  The Pasvik Trail is one of the three big long distance dog sled races in Norway with a course of over 320km.   This is a very special opportunity to follow in the footsteps of this race in the far north of Norway on the border with north eastern Russia

Karasjok Tours

Our other range of tours is based out of Karasjok in the Central interior part of Finnmark.  Here it is possible to travel in a mix of terrain, including forests, along frozen rivers and across the wilderness of the Vidda’s Arctic tundra to the coast.  Accommodation can be in comfortable wooden cabins either as a base or multi day cabin to cabin tours and on some trips one can travel completely self sufficiently staying in Lavuu tents.

Expedition to the Arctic Sea & Tour of the Year are the most adventurous dog sled tours we offer and will involve camping in tents overnight.  These tours are 11 and 10 day programs and are designed to be suitable for experienced outdoor people.   These more demanding trips are becoming more and more popular.
