What to expect

Ever wondered what it takes to get a pack of furry elite athletes ready for the winter season?

On this tour, you will play an active role in training our huskies by driving your own team. After a brief introduction, you'll take the lead of the training cart, steering your dogs through vibrant forests and open fields.

Husky dogs love to run, and there is no better way to understand their power than by taking the controls yourself. After the ride, we'll enjoy a cup of hot juice and learn about the daily lives and the specialized training routines of these amazing dogs.
