We intentionally keep our groups small to create a relaxed, intimate, and authentic experience. This is not a commercial husky park, but a real family-run farm where you can connect with nature, the dogs, and the people behind the experience.
Perfect for couples, families with children, and anyone looking for a genuine Finnish winter adventure away from mass tourism.

No special level of physical fitness is required, as guests remain seated in the sled while the professional musher drives throughout the tour.
We have a dedicated blog post on the topic of physical requirements. How fit do you need to be for dog sledding? From sit-down tours to multi-day expeditions with a tent, we cover what level of fitness is required for different types of trips. Read more about it here.

As one of the newest additions to our network, this kennel will welcome guests for its very first season at their family-run farm in Finland next winter. While this will be their first season operating from their own location, the owners bring many years of experience working with sled dogs. We know them personally and are delighted to support their journey, as they share the same commitment to responsible dog welfare and authentic sled dog experiences. Looking ahead, they have ambitious plans focused first and foremost on continuously improving the dogs' living conditions. These include a dedicated puppy area, larger free-running spaces, a new water supply system with a private well to provide fresh water directly to the kennels, a purpose-built kitchen for preparing the dogs' meals, and a dedicated veterinary and recovery room for dogs requiring special care. In addition, they plan to expand the parking area and create comfortable on-site accommodation for guests. Every improvement is part of a long-term vision to provide the highest standards of care for the dogs while creating an even more enjoyable and welcoming experience for visitors. We are excited to support their journey and look forward to seeing this family-run project continue to grow for many years to come.
