Highlights It's nice for you and the dogs to met each other before we start to action. In the kennel we will inform you more about our dogs and Siberian huskies. Come really in contact with the dogs of your team, so they look forward to drag you throught the great white nature. Together we decide which tour is the best for that day. After that you get a short instruction how to use the sled and you help to set a harness on the dogs and place them in front of the sled. Here you will experience how eager they are to drag you. You will start your trip over lakes and through the forest where a guide follows to support and for security. By coming back on the farm it's nice if you help to bring the dogs back in their area after thanking them for the nice trip. Siberian huskies Before we start sledding it's important for us that you learn to know more about Siberian huskies and come in contact with them. We will tell about our dogs, because each dog has his/her own character and speciality. Siberian huskies are very sensitive on atmosphere. Therefore a good contact with our dogs before the sledding experience, how more you enjoy the tour together. Dogsledding will be an experience for life if you become a team with the dogs, then they will love to show you around in the white forest. After introduction with the dogs and instruction how to use the sled we decide together which tour is the best for that day. You help to set a harness on the dogs and place them in front of the sled. Here you will experience how eager they are to drag you. You will start your trip over lakes and through the forest where a guide follows to support and for security. By coming back on the farm it's nice if you help to bring the dogs back in their area after thanking them for the nice trip.
