HOLIDAYS TO SWEDEN

HUSKY MUSHING & THE ICE HOTEL
4 days from £1040 pp

Mush your own team of pedigree Alaskan huskies through the sparkling white vistas of the Tornedalen valley; swoosh past pine & birch forests, across frozen lakes and through reindeer pastures. Stay overnight in traditional log cabins; eat around open fires; discover the soothing, soporific warmth of a logwood sauna and, if you fancy, finish off with a night in the world’s most famous igloo.

Johan Vaisanen & Sara Ljunggren are an item, showing passion about nature as well as for each other. Born in Kangos on the Lainiojoki riverbank, Johan learnt to mush in Alaska where he lived in remote splendour for a year before returning home to work with his own huskies. Sara grew up in Gota (population 500), found it too urban and joined Johan in Kangos (population 300). Between them, they can ride, ski, kayak, canoe, fish, climb, mountain bike and of course mush so, you couldn’t be in better hands.

Mushing teams of Alaskan or Siberian huskies is one of the oldest ways of travelling in the Arctic and on this tour you will learn to both care for and drive your own dog team, as well as picking up the tracks of moose, reindeer and fox. Overnight accommodation is shared in traditional log cabins with bunk beds. Above all this is a shared intimate experience - group size is never more than 6.
