Important information for Winter safaris

Prices include return transport from your hotel in Rovaniemi, driving time from the centre to the Huskypoint Käpälämäki is about 15-20 min. Total duration time includes 2x20min time for transportation.  If you have a car at use and you don't need transport we will reduce the prices.

Guiding in English. Two of our guides speak also German. If you wish to have guiding in German please let us know in advance.

Before the dog sledding you will be given thorough safety instructions for handling the team. In all programs you can drive the team of huskies yourself.

Persons under 18-years old are not allowed to drive the team on their own.

Due to weather conditions trails may sometimes  be not safe enough for beginners to drive. In these cases our guide will be your driver and you will be a passenger in the sled. Most likely in early December, late April.

Please notice that dog sledding is not recommended during pregnancy, or if a person has a knee or back problems due to pumpy trails.

Participants should be in a reasonable good physical condition escpecially when participating to Unleash the Musher.  

The speed of the dog team might be surpricing in the beginning and handling the team requires concentration.

In all programs unless otherwise mentioned you will share a team and the sled with your partner.

Families will be in the same sled and one of the adults will be a driver. Big family e.g. 2 adults 4 children we will divided in two sledges and then both of the family adults will be drivers. We have sleds in different sizes.

Unfortunately none of the programs shown in these pages are recommended to the children under 18 months. Time spent outside is reasonable long and there are no indoor premises in the forest. The noice of the dogs in a teams before they start running can be disturbing.

Total duration times are approximately times, time depends on the amount of participants and the weather conditions. 

Winter clothing (overall, boots, hat, mittens.) are included to the price, but you still need to be dressed up with warm cothes underneath and between.
