Husky for Families

5 Hours

Husky for Families: visit a Husky Farm in Lapland with LappOne – The five sense of Lapland

Your safari “Husky for Families” starts from your hotel and drive to our office in HaparandaTornio Resecentrum/Matkakeskus. There you are given basic information on the experience and security instructions alongside the proper arctic clothes; we then depart towards the Husky Lodge, Finland (about 1 hour drive).

We start our husky safari in the enchanted forest of Honkamaa! We start a wonderful safari lasting around 30 minutes and drive our sled in the pristine forest that surrounds this beautiful lodge, once a church summer camp location. During the safari we will stop a few times in order for you to take a rest, take pictures or switch driver.

After the safari it’s time to cuddle the dogs and say thanks for a great job! Most dogs will also be happy to pose for your pictures.

We then gather for a traditional soup lunch in the Pirtti, a museum house from the mid 1800s, where you can learn all about the Arctic and these wonderful dogs directly from the musher.

In the afternoon we drive you back to your hotel (around 45-60 minutes).
