Join us on an exclusive mountain dog sledding excursion that begins high up in Ottsjö village. Amazing views and a Swedish Fika are included in the tour!
The Exclusive Mountain Dog Sledding Tour will begin high up in Ottsjö village, where the scenery is truly breathtaking! Before we set off, your guide will provide a short course on how to drive a dog sled, followed by a health and safety briefing. You will then have an opportunity to meet all the dogs. After hooking the dogs up in their rightful positions, it's time to set off on your adventure!
Our exclusive tour really offers a magical experience. To the east, you will view the spectacular mountain ranges of Storulån (Great Wolf River) and Selina. During this experience, we will stop for Fika (Swedish coffee and cake), which will be an excellent opportunity to take photos! We will then make our way back to the starting point via a different scenic route.
After your one-of-a-kind dog sledding experience, you will be left with lasting memories coupled with the excitement of your heart pumping as the dogs eagerly pull you through the beautiful frozen landscape!
