View on Google MapsPersonalized experience meeting, family and dogs. Delightful evening ride through the woods and meadows. got to spend time with the dogs while they were being harnessed to the sleds and afterwards. Highly recommend this experience.
Ole was very helpful. Our ship arrived hours later than planned. He adjusted our start time so that we could still take this. Dogs were amazing.
No need to look any further for a high-quality, accommodating dog sled ride in Alta. This is the one to book! so much fun to meet the dogs! Warm thermal suits, boots and even gloves were provided. The sleds were extremely comfortable to sit in and the views of the local area were gorgeous.! The owner was wonderful to deal with and provided warm hospitality to all of us.!

This experience was awesome, the sledding itself but also the sharing moments with Ole, Anna and the dogs. The dogs are beautiful and the landscape so nice. Very good moment in family.
This excursion was one of the highlights of our trip. It was an indescribable feeling to go on a sleigh ride with the dogs. The guide and his team were wonderful hosts. We were picked up directly from the cruise ship and later driven back there. After a brief introduction, getting dressed, and getting to know the dogs, we set off. We drove for about 45 minutes through a magical snowy landscape. Afterwards, we were able to cuddle with all the dogs and were treated to hot drinks and pastries. 5 out of 5 stars, it was perfect. Thank you for the experience.
An amazing morning spent getting to know the huskies and learning about their routines and training. All of the dogs were very friendly and full of energy, didn’t get a chance to make a fuss of all of them. Ole sent us a message with pick up details from Alta port and took us to his house and kennels where the huskies are kept. The scenery is beautiful in the Alta Valley which is breathtaking. We were kitted out in all in one suits which kept us nice and warm as temperatures were cold as expected inside the Artic Circle. We were with another couple so three sleds were prepared with six huskies on each. Ole gave us clear instructions on how to drive the sled and the opportunity for you both to have a go driving if you wanted. I had the full experience driving as my wife wasn’t that confident but I must say it was easy to control as long as you pay attention! We were out for about 50 mins and travelled about 10km in total. We then had time for photos and had hot chocolate and biscuits in the house and got to see the schedules the dogs have so that they get substantial rest days and how they are chosen for the sled runs. Overall it was an amazing experience in a unique friendly atmosphere rather than a commercial experience with hundreds of dogs. I would definitely go back if we were to visit again.
Great experience. Very friendly family business. Great handling of the Huskies. We were pulled in two sleds through the wonderful landscape. And at the end saw three more moose.
This experience exceeded our expectations; we had a very personal service from start to finish. We were collected from the port as agreed and drove to the Husky house, we were kitted out in cold weather gear and met the dogs. There were 30 of them who were so excited to meet us...and we spent some time getting to know some of them whilst others were prepared for the sledge. We went out in two sledges my husband in one with the owner and me with his Assistant...it was exhilarating. After we had gone through some snowy forest, the owner suggested my husband drive me...after a few minutes of explanation we were off. We were out for just under an hour and it was such a fantastic and fun experience with beautiful scenery. On our return, we were able to meet more of the dogs who were clearly well looked after. We were then invited into the owners home for a hot drink and snack whilst he talked about the dogs and some of the races he had competed in. We were then driven back to the port.
Can’t recommend enough! Beautiful trip through the woods along the river. Plenty of time to love on the dogs. Great host and tour guide!
Wonderful dog sled ride through a beautiful snowy landscape with very nice guides. Can I recommend without restriction.
