What does Husky Picnic include?

Husky Picnic includes a kennel visit and meeting the dogs, 1 km husky ride and a picnic in the teepee by open fire with your own snacks.

1 km ride does not last long. Between the rides, it is possible to make friends with the huskies, do photography and sit by the fire doing the picnic. Bring your own snacks like sausages and marshmellow candy. There's coffee and tea available from our side. People stay typically 1–2 hours depending on their own interests and weather.

Please note that Husky Picnic is not a real safari where you will learn how to drive your own dogteam. It's not possible here.
