Mountaintour Dogsledding

SEK24800

per person

A magical dogsled experience in the area of the famous Kungsleden (King’s Trail).

Our tour takes place in the mountains northwest of Kiruna, Swedish Lapland.

With Kebnekaise, Swedens highest mountain, and the Abisko nationalpark, the surroundings on this tour are breathtaking. This dogsled tour follows the famous King’s trail (Kungsleden) through the beautifully eroded mountains.

Each guest drives his own dogteam with 5 – 6 sleddogs and takes care of them during the trip. We spend the nights in Swedish mountain cabins, without running water or electricity, that vary from quite basic to more modern accommodations. A sauna is located in several of them. Breakfast, dinner and a small lunch are included and in the cabins the cooking can be done on gas stoves.

Compared to our Taiga Weektour, this tour is more demanding. Partly because of the trails and the quickly changing weather conditions, partly because of the fact that all the equipment, food and of course the dogfood have to be carried along in the sleds. For this reason this tour can only be booked if you have at least the experience of a weektour on the dogsled.
