Tour Plan

Day 1:

• 11:00 – Arrival at Yellow Snow Husky Tours.
• Gear up in warm clothes.
• Safety-instruction: You will meet the stars of the kennel, our huskies. The guide will give you information about the dogs and the tour. After that he will explain to you how to drive the sled. 
• Prepare the dogs: Together we will prepare the dogs for the tour. You will take care of your own dogteam!
• Dogsled tour: Off we go on a beautiful tour! Today we will  cover 25-35 km through a white landscape. Half-way we have a break where we give the dogs a well deserved snack. The guide will make a nice home-made lunch over a fire and answers all your questions. During the tour there is plenty of time for short breaks to make pictures, cuddle with the dogs and learn more about the nature around us.
• ca. 16.00 – Arrival at the cabin or tent: First we thank the dogs and prepare them for the night. After that we heat up the cabin, get water and have some time to relax before diner. After a delicious dinner we will feed the dogs. If there is a sauna, we can of course heat it up. Or maybe you would like to try out the snowshoes? We have a cozy evening, hopefully we see some northern lights! 

Day 2:

• 7.00 – Morning routine: It’s time for a tasty breakfast for the dogs and for us. We clean up and make ourselves ready.
• Dogsled tour: We hook up the dogs in front of the sleds and after an exciting start we can enjoy gliding over the snow again. We will drive home and cover around 15-20 km. 
• 11.00 – Return at the kennel: After the tour we thank the dogs for the amazing job they have done and bring them back to their kennel. 
• ca. 12.00 – End of the tour: You return the gear you borrowed from us. Unfortunately it is time to leave. But you will go home with life-long memories and you are always welcome back for more adventures!

Self driving – 2 persons per sled
You will drive your own sled with 4-6 dogs. You share this sled with your friend. One person drives the sled, while the other person sits in it. Along the way you can change drivers as often as you like.

Other options
– 1 person per sled – for a surcharge 
Please let us know in advance.

There are no requirements in regard of experience, age and fitness to join this tour with us.
Because we are out on a private tour, we can change the program to your wishes and abilities at any time.

We do require some basic fitness level when you want to drive the sled yourself. Contact us if you are in doubt.

For families with children
This activity is also very fun for families with children. For the 2-day husky tour we advise a minimum age of 8 years old. 

For safety reasons we have set a minimum age of 14 years to drive a sled. Younger kids sit in the sled while a parent or older sibling drives the sled. They do get the chance to go dogsledding on the easier parts. They either drive by themselves with an adult sitting in the sled (from 10-11 years old) or they steer the sled together with a parent or the guide (from 5-6 years old). 

These are no fixed numbers and every child is different so we like to discuss these things with you beforehand. Be aware that we most likely have to change the program a bit when we are out with children, depending on the weather conditions. 

The Cabin

We will sleep in a wilderness cabin or big tent. They have a few things in common:

• They are in the middle of nature
• They are basic but comfortable
• They are cozy and authentic
• They are warm or can be warmed up well, so you will not be cold

The tent and some of the cabins have no electricity or running water. We warm it up with a fire, get water from a well or river and use candles to have light. Sometimes there is a sauna to wash ourselves. 

We will all sleep together in the same room. The dogs sleep outside on a warm straw-bed and get jackets when it is cold. You can always go there for cuddles.

We book the cabins in advance and choose the cabin ourselves depending on availability, trails, weather conditions, group size and your preferences. 

We do ask you to be part of the team and help out with the chores. Examples: making a fire, chopping wood, feeding the dogs, getting water, help with making the dinner, doing dishes, etc. These things are part of the adventure and the more you get involved, the greater the experience.
