DOG SLEDDING TOUR FJÄLL XXL

Detailed program

Arrival and departure day for all our tours is Friday.

Day 1: Arrival

You travel individually to Vilhelmina and we organize the transfer from the airport or the bus station to our camp. You are accommodated in a double room where you have time to set up yourself. Afterwards we get to know each other during a cozy dinner. During dinnertime, we present all the options for organizing the tour and clarify open questions.

Day 2: Tour preparation and snowshoe hike

After breakfast time, you get to know the dogs - lots of cuddles included. We present you each dog which will accompany you on your adventure for the next few days individually. During the tour you will be a team - you and the dogs - and you will have to rely on each other in many situations. Therefore it is of great importance to us that you get the chance to build a relationship with the dogs in your team.
Afterwards we explore the surrounding nature on a snowshoe or ski hike. You get a first impression of the stunning landscape you will get to enjoy over the next few days. We adjust the length of the tour to your wishes and the current weather conditions. Today is generally a rest day for the dogs. But it is possible that dogs, which did not take part in the previous tour, accompany us on our hike.
Back in the camp, we eat a snack and prepare the tour together: We load all the equipment and dog food onto the sleds and discuss a possible route of the tour.

Day 3-13: Multi day tour

After breakfast time, we load the dogs and equipment onto the trailer and drive by car towards the nearest fells (35 or 55 km). There, we will go over the last details concerning the tour and then we finally head off with our dog teams into the white landscape. Let the adventure begin! Eleven unforgettable days with the dogs lie ahead of us. For the best part we will travel through the fells. Every evening we plan the route for the next day together and adjust it to the current weather conditions and your wishes. After having arrived at our chosen destination, the dogs are taken care of. Then we prepare our wilderness camp. We spend the night in a simple wilderness cabin without electricity and running water or in a tent.

In the middle of the tour we will might take a rest day for everybody - dogs and humans. The tour is organized as a round trip and we return to our parking spot on Wednesday the following week. We load everything on the trailer and head back home by car. Back in the camp, we unload everything and take care of the dogs. Then you get to enjoy the well-earned shower. We end the day with a dinner in a cozy atmosphere and let the experience pass in review.

Day 14: Leisure day

Thursday is all about relaxation for everybody. Those who still feel the need to exercise can grab the snowshoes or skis and explore the surroundings of the camp. Or you can get the ice fishing equipment and try to catch dinner yourself.

Day 15: Departure

After saying goodbye to the dogs, we organize the transfer back to Vilhelmina and you start your trip home.
