Huskies and Ski Holidays in Sweden
A dog sled tour through Sweden’s winter landscape is a fantastic experience. No one is likely to forget trips lasting several days—and kids least of all. Experienced dog sled guides (mushers) lead these tours. Guests drive their own teams of dogs through Sweden’s white winter wonderland. Exciting experiences on the sled ride are almost guaranteed.
Huskies for the dog sled
The famous huskies are loyal companions on these tours. This beautiful, very hardy breed of dog comes from Siberia or Alaska. The dogs can hardly wait for the signal to set off on a sled ride. The lead dogs wait eagerly for commands. These huskies can pull sleds at exhilarating speeds of up to 120 km per hour. But it would really be a shame not to take more time to appreciate the stunning landscape. These sled tours far from mass tourism are adventurous, to say the least.

A holiday at a husky farm
A holiday with the whole family at a husky farm is also wonderful. Cosy Swedish log cabins offer relaxation after long sled rides, ski tours or snowshoe hikes. Especially at Christmas, of course. After all, Santa Claus seems to live in the land of the moose.
Dog sled tours and ski holidays
Lapland is also a great place to combine dog sled tours with a ski holiday. For example, near the ski resorts of Björkliden, Boden, Borgafjäll, Gällivare, Hemavan, Kittelfjäll, Riksgränsen ski resort or Tärnaby. Here you can enjoy a ski holiday while discovering the fascinating wildlife and natural beauty. An experience the whole family is sure to enjoy.
