Dog Sledding under the Northern Light
Tour Overview
Embark on a magical dog sledding journey under the Aurora Borealis in Alta, complete with expert guidance, a personal husky team, and the chance to witness the northern lights while gliding through the Arctic wilderness. 🐾✨❄️ Begin your journey in Alta, where a comfortable minibus awaits to transport you to the picturesque Gargia. Upon arrival, you’ll be provided with warm clothing to keep you cozy during this unforgettable experience. Our experienced guides will greet you and provide thorough training on dog sledding. Once you’re ready, you’ll have your own team of huskies. If there are two guests, you’ll take turns driving halfway along the route.
