Grilling moose meat on the open fire, photographing the wilderness and mabye even meeting some wildlife. Reading your favourite book by the warm fireplace, with a glass of wine and enjoying home cooked ecological food that for once someone else has prepared for you.
It doesn't have to be only a dream. Only a few hours by plane or train, there lays such place and tranquility.

Based on many requests and inquieries the Nordic Husky Farm brings you this brand new program, which will give you the touch of all - mushing, sled dog experience, walking, snowshoeing, some puppy love, good food, and pleasant times spent by fireplace or open fire.

Limited to what the locals call the "fifth season", the Spring Mushing & Outdoor Week is a unique oportunity for you to experience something unusual.

Because of our busy racing season, this is one of your few and rare chances to meet the huskies in action in their natural element. Your chance to feel the connection with them, experience the fantastic feeling of driving a sled pulled by dog team, but also to enjoy other outdoor activities on snow.

Take advantage of our Spring Mushing & Outdoor Week offer and book your spring holiday well in advance. There are only certain specific dates available in March and April.
