Winter Dog Sledding in Norway, Finland and Sweden
Winter is the classic season for dog sledding adventures. Vast snow covered landscapes stretch across northern Norway, Finnish Lapland and Swedish Lapland, creating ideal conditions for travel by sledge. Guided by experienced mushers and energetic huskies, you glide silently through frozen forests, across open tundra and along frozen rivers.
In Norway, dog sledding routes wind through dramatic mountain scenery and wide valleys beneath clear Arctic skies. Finland offers peaceful forest trails and wide open wilderness, often illuminated by the Northern Lights during the darkest months. Sweden combines deep pine forests with remote highlands, providing long scenic journeys far from modern life.
Winter dog sledding experiences suit both beginners and experienced travellers. Options range from short introductory rides to multi day expeditions with overnight stays in wilderness cabins. The bond between musher and dogs is at the heart of every journey, creating an adventure that is as emotional as it is exhilarating.

Summer Dog Carting Adventures in Scandinavia
Dog sledding is not limited to winter. During the warmer months, the same athletic dogs continue to run using specially designed carts. Summer dog cart adventures offer a completely different perspective on Scandinavia, travelling through green forests, along lakeshores and across rolling trails under the midnight sun.
In summer, Norway reveals lush valleys and mountain plateaus filled with wildflowers. Finland becomes a land of endless lakes and quiet woodland tracks. Sweden offers tranquil forest routes and scenic countryside ideal for dog cart journeys. These experiences allow visitors to enjoy the landscape at a slower pace while still feeling the power and teamwork of a dog team in motion.
Summer adventures are perfect for travellers who want to explore the Arctic regions without winter temperatures. They are also ideal for families and nature lovers interested in wildlife, photography and outdoor activity.
