To get a feeling of the real polar expedition is easy. Follow the footsteps of Barents, Nansen and Nobile in the dog sled!
Experience Svalbard by dog sledding.
We will pick up our guests at their accommodation, and they will be given warm suits and shoes before the trip starts. After arriving at Svalbard Villmarkssenter you will meet the polar dogs, and be instructed on how to handle the dog sled.
We set off in pairs; one pair per sled. The main guide will be in front with the lead-dog sled. The dogs are eager to go, so here you really have something to look forward to! The dogs will be your engine the next couple of hours and they will bring you on an adventure that you may never have experienced before.The nature on Svalbard is stunning and the landscape is covered with a white layer of snow. Variable weather, northern lights, crystal-clear skies full of stars, moonlight or sunshine both day and night; these are variations only the Arctic can provide.
This is an activity that almost everyone can join.
Included:
- Transport to/from accommodation
- Warm drink
- Guide with necessary safety equipment
