Dog sledding is a real experience - there is quite simply nothing like the sensation of being in control of your own dogsled and husky team, putting your trust in your dogs and earning their friendship in return. Huskies are good-natured, full of energy and born to run!
Our range of husky sledding tours in Sweden, Norway and Finland has something for all ages and levels of difficulty - from family-friendly shorter dogsled tours of 1-4 days to challenging wilderness expeditions up to two weeks.
Tours in the far north also offer very good possibilities for Northern Lights during your trip.
Most of our dogsled tours are typically fully booked many months in advance, but demand for dog sledding for the winter 2022/2023 season is particularly high due to the large number of guests who were unable to travel during the pandemic. We strongly recommend booking as early as possible.
All our dogsled tours are based on driving your own sled - after expert instruction, you will be mushing your own husky team. For those too young or who do not wish to drive their own sled, shared sled options are also available for some tours.
Choose to sled through beautiful lowland landscapes of frozen lakes and forest or in spectacular mountain scenery, staying overnight in wilderness cabins or even winter camping.
Whichever of our dog sledding holidays you choose, working closely with the huskies and taking part in their care is very much part of the experience.
"Dog sledding combines the adventure and challenge of being outdoors in wintertime with the added dimension of working very closely with your team of huskies - who are always the real stars of the show! I've been lucky enough to do many extended tours over the years and each one has its own special memories." Bob from the Nature Travels team
We have been offering dogsled tours since Nature Travels began in 2006 and it has always been our most popular winter activity. In that time, over 3500 guests from all over the world have travelled with us for a husky adventure!
We've done a lot of sledding ourselves and - you'll see trip report articles from the team for most of our tours. We love dog sledding, and we love the dogs, who are after all the real stars of any tour.
We're happy to answer any questions you may have to help you choose the best dogsled tour for you and steer you through the mushing maze!

Depending on the location, the season for dog sledding in Sweden, Norway and Finand runs all the way from mid-November to early May - so a husky adventure can be enjoyed six months of the year. Sled through a beautiful snow-clad world of frozen lakes and forest or head into the mountains to discover spectacular mountain landscapes.
Accommodation varies depending on the tour, but for many of our multi-day tours, will be in simple wilderness cabins along the route, where you will fetch water from the lake and gather round the fire in the evening, or you can add to the level of challenge and choose a winter camping expedition.
