Day
1
Arrival & check
in at the Huskylodge located at the sleddog kennel. We have two nice rooms,
Thule & Toolik, both top standard with comfortable beds, private TV room &WC.
If you need we give you a lift to the local grocery store. We give you a tour
around the kennel and talk about the days to come. The program allows you to
have some time of your own to read a book, take a walk or just relax and enjoy
the nice and cold winter in
Sweden.
Day 2
We start with some soft and relaxing activity, we go down the lake and try some
icefishing. A way to ice fish is to lay down on warm reindeer skins and “peak
fish”. Its both very relaxing, since you staring down the drilled hole and your
thoughts just wandering of ….and also very exiting when you see a fish swim by
and hopefully bites.
Later
in the evening we put on the snowshoes and take of out in the woods . We will
have a Campfire
night with taste of Jämtland – we spend the night in a tentlavvo
in the woods ,lightened by torches and warming campfire .We serve glüe wine and
a taste of local deliciousness.
Day
3
We start the day by feeding the dogs and do some kennel work. You get to know
our nice dogs and we show you how to harness, trying the sleds & go through the
technique. The takeoff with a dogteam can be a bit tricky, so we will try that
behind a scooter and then with a real team ofcourse! Today we make a small trip
around the kennel area where you run your own team and also a longer tour on the
guide sled with a big team of 12 dogs.
We take
a lunch break and put on the snowshoes and walk out in the forest, we bring wood
and make our lunch over the open fire. After you tried the sleds & gone through
the technique you will feel real safe when its time to go on the mountain tour
tomorrow
Day 4
Early morning we pack the car and set of to the mountains. Time to harness the
dogs and put them in the teams and do a full day of dog sledding in the
mountains. Morwen,White and the other dogs takes you trough breathtaking views
among the magnificent mountains and wilderness of Sweden. We take lunch break
when we see a nice spot and give all dogs some snacks for good work. The colours
up in the mountains are very special this time of year. The cold makes the sky
all shades of pink and purple, it´s very beautiful!
Day 5
Today its time to say goodbye to the dogs, the guide & Jämtland. Hopefully, with
a lot of nice memories that will last for a lifetime!
