Dog Sledding PDF Tisk Email

Say hello to a bunch of barking huskies that are ready for action (but still very friendly). The dog sledding adventure starts with meeting the dogs and preparing for the trip. You will get instructions on how to drive a dog sledding team. Then you drive the dog sled by yourself into the white landscapes, through the beautiful Vass Valley, a side valley connected to the great Tamok Valley. You will at first see Camp Tamok on your way out in the wild. The trails you follow have a total distance of approximately 15 km. The area where you lead the sled is totally uninhabited, with mountains and forest landscape. Out in the wild these dogs are in their right environment. You will be driving in pairs, one driver and one passenger on each sled, with opportunity to switch places half way. At the end of your trail you will return to Camp Tamok. There you will be served a hot meal in a lavvu (Sami herdsmen’s tent).
