What to expect

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup directly from your accommodation.

Relax in a spacious minivan while your friendly local driver shares interesting stories about Latvia, its traditions, cuisine, and the Baltic region. We take the most picturesque route, so you can enjoy beautiful countryside views along the way.

At the husky farm, you will meet professional breeders and their energetic, affectionate dogs. After a short introduction, hop on your sled and enjoy an unforgettable 25–40 minute ride through the snowy forest trails of a peaceful nature park. Feel the excitement as the Huskies guide you through the winter wonderland.
After the ride, take time to explore the area with a relaxing forest walk and climb the observation tower for panoramic views of Latvia’s stunning nature.
