Our first stop will be to a husky farm in the primeval forest of Lapland. The sled is driven by farm staff. You ride in a sled pulled by huskies (if there is not enough snow in autumn, a wheel cart will be used), and just enjoy the “speed and passion” brought to you by the dogs. Listen as farm staff explain the history of huskies in Lapland. At the same time, you can also interact with the dogs and take photos at the farm.
After bidding farewell to the lovely huskies, we will take you to experience the most intimate ice fishing experience in Arctic lakes. The guide will prepare ice fishing equipment for you and demonstrate how to dig an ice hole on the glacial lake. Then he will put out the line and quietly wait for the fish to take the bait, while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Arctic ice and snow world. The guide will prepare a campfire and drinks for you, and once the fish is caught, you can cook it on site! We have also prepared smoked salmon or sausages for you. Whether we can catch fish or not, we can enjoy the authentic life of Lapland around the campfire with a cup of warm hot blueberry tea.
