Suitable for who?
Our sled dog tours are suitable for most groups, from families with children to adults. For safety reasons, the person driving the sled must be at least 18 years old. Minors are warmly welcome to enjoy the ride seated comfortably in the sled.

Sled dog tours in a nutshell
A husky safari is a guided sled dog experience where you travel through snowy Lapland along prepared trails with a team of huskies pulling the sled. Each sled is shared by two people – a driver and a passenger.
Yes, all participants aged 18 or over can drive the sled.
Our guide will pick you up from the reception lobby of Jänkä Resort’s main building. Please arrive about 5 minutes before the activity begins.
We recommend warm, weather-appropriate winter clothing. Dressing in layers and wearing proper winter shoes is key, and it’s important to protect your neck and cheeks from the cold wind. UV-protected eyewear is recommended during sunny periods.
Yes, all adult participants have the opportunity to try driving the sled during the safari.
The wellbeing of our dogs and the sustainability of our operations are at the heart of everything we do. Safaris are always planned according to the dogs’ endurance and weather conditions – working days are kept moderate, and each dog has two days off per week. Their fitness, health, and recovery are monitored daily to ensure a happy and eager team on every safari.
