Sled Dog Tour and Northern Lights in Sweden!

Hosted by

Katharina

Guided trip
It will be adventurous and wild! Are you ready to get away from the hustle and bustle of work and digital media and disappear into nature for a few days? Then this trip is exactly what you are looking for. We start together in Stockholm and drive by rental car towards Swedish Lapland, where we spend one or two nights in a cosy cottage before we head out to our husky pack the next morning. We will disappear into nature for some days, guided by our husky sleds, searching for elk tracks and gazing at the northern lights. Shoes and warm overalls are provided and during the tour, food is taken care of - we might even cook ouside at a fire place. Nights will be spent at a traditional Swedish house. You should be prepared for cool temperatures, lots of adventure and a few days without cell phones and be a team player as both the other travelers and the huskies are part of your family for this trip! :) The accommodations, rental car, husky tour, overalls, snowshoes, food during the sled dog tour and experienced guides are included in the price. The only separate cost are gas and food for the days before and after the tour, but we will create a Splitwise account and share the costs between us. If you love nature and animals, love adventure and like to challenge yourself, this tour will be the adventure of a lifetime and refill your energy, because in nature and peace there is power!

Trip Itinerary
1

Stockholm

Day 1
We start together in Stockholm and drive by rental car towards Swedish Lapland, where we spend one or two nights in a cozy cottage, cook together and have a nice evening together with a glass of wine before we start our husky tour.
2

Uppsala

Day 1-3
On our way to the north, we can visit the cities of Uppsala, Gävle or have a nice walk by the lake of Hudiksvall. I have been to all of them, and they are all equally nice, so we can decide on this together :)
3

Umeå

Day 3-4
Here we get to know our dog pack and everyone meets their animals. We get an introduction to dog sledding and spend the evening having dinner together in a cozy log cabin. We rest and prepare our equipment, because the next day we start our excursion!
4

Vindeln

Day 4-5
In the morning, we go into the wilderness with the sled dog teams. Everyone drives their own team of 3-4 large, powerful Alaskan Malamutes and Greenland Dogs. These dogs are much bigger and stronger than the newfangled sled dogs that are mostly used for tourist tours nowadays. They have a special charisma with a lot of personality and human kindness. The route and accommodation can be arranged in the group and adapted to the wishes of the guests. We will go on a journey through the wild mountain valleys and look for traces of moose and wolves. There are several wilderness cabins that can be approached. Of course, we have to take the weather into account when deciding on the course of the tour.

Vindeln

Day 5-6
On the next day, we will roam with our teams through the tranquility of the Scandinavian winter landscape and reach the camp in the afternoon, where it will be time to say goodbye to our dogs. If we are lucky, we will see the northern lights at night or even some reindeers!
6

Stockholm

Day 6-7
We pack our things and drive with our rental car back towards Stockholm, where we have one last night together to go through the exciting pictures and stories of the last days. There will be some time left to explore Stockholm together and go to a pub in the evening.
7

Stockholm

Day 7-8
It's time to leave this beautiful country. We take the rental car and head to the airport to return to reality from our adventure. Fortunately, even after that no one can take away these unique memories! :)
