Review of Kiruna’s 2.5-hour husky sled ride, with snowy forests, frozen lakes, Swedish fika, warm gear, pickup, and practical booking tips.

“The guide from Slovakia picked me up punctually from my apartment. He was very down to earth and chatty. It helped that we we were provided with thick overalls and boots before the ride. And the ride itself became one of the key highlights of my trip in Kiruna. The ride felt long enough and it went through the frosty trees and lakes. The views were amazing throughout the ride just before sunset. We were given cinnamon buns and a choice between tea coffee and hot chocolate at the shed. The look outside the window against the snowy backdrop was just so christmassy and nice. We continued the ride back…”

Ride with 12 to 14 Alaskan Huskies through Kiruna’s snowy woods, meet the dogs, share fika by the fire, and stay warm in provided gear.

“Wij hadden een magische voormiddag! Voordat we van start gingen met de activiteit mochten we bij de puppy’s om ze te knuffelen, en ook bij de grote honden. Alle honden waren mensen gewoon en zeer sociaal en gehoorzaam. Je merkt ook echt dat het personeel al hun liefde aan de honden geeft. En tour zelf was door een prachtig winterlandschap. Geen woorden kunnen omschrijven hoe mooi het was. En koud hadden we niet, dankzij de thermische pakken, schoenen en wanten die we van hun mochten lenen. Na de tour konden we nog even opwarmen aan een vuur met een Fika!”

It was a lot of adrenaline and an unforgettable experience! Frederik also supplied us with a lot of interesting information about the Sámi life, and about the reindeer and their relationship with the environment.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 23 reviews · 7 hours · from $165

Visit Kiruna’s Márkanbáiki museum from Abisko, meet reindeer, learn about Sami culture, and enjoy a warm fika in a teepee cafe.

“Très bonne activité si vous êtes a Abisko et que vous voulez voir les rennes et connaître un peu mieux le peuple Sami et leur culture. L’endroit se constitue d’une petite église, un café-restaurant au chaud, un musée extérieur, l’enclos des rennes en libre accès (pour nourrir les rennes vous pouvez soit acheter un sac de mousse a la réception ou bien attendre la visite guidée qui se termine par nourrir les rennes). Certe il n’y a que 5 rennes (ne vous fiez pas a la photo de présentation) mais globalement je trouve que l’activité vaut le coût d’être vécu surtout si vous n’avez pas la possibilité de vous rendre…”
