Tour Plan

• 10:00 – 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, we will be out for the whole day and we cover 30-40 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.
• Arrival at the cabin: 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. We have a cozy evening at the cabin, hopefully we see some northern lights! 
• Morning routine at the cabin: It’s time for a tasty breakfast for the dogs and for us. We clean up the cabin and make ourselves ready.
• Dogsled tour day 2 + 3 (+4): We hook up the dogs in front of the sleds and after an exciting start we can enjoy another adventurous day in nature. Every day that you stand on the sled you get better at driving and steering. Some days are a bit longer, other days a bit shorter, this depends completely on which trail we (can) take and weather conditions. We will drive an average of 25-35 km each day, nice routes through a beautiful landscape to another place to sleep. In the afternoons and evenings there is time for a game, a snowshoe hike, sauna, cuddling dogs or just relaxing.
• Return at the kennel: The last day we steer the dogs back towards the kennel. By now you feel like a professional on the runners behind your own team of dogs. After the tour we thank the dogs for the amazing job they have done and bring them back to their kennel. During these days you created a bond with your own dog team, it will not be easy to say goodbye.
• End of the tour: You return the gear you borrowed from us and we will have a hot chocolate in our home to warm up again. 
• ca 15.00 / 16:00 – Unfortunately it is time to leave. But you will go home with life-long memories and you are always welcome back for more adventures!

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 are very flexible to 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 the 3 or 4-day husky tour we advise a minimum age of 14 years old. If you are a very active family with younger children, you can come on a 2-day huskytour or you can contact us and we can discuss the possibilities.

The Cabins

We will sleep in a wilderness cabin and big tent. All our accommodations 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. One of the cabins is more like a cozy holiday house with electricity.

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.
