Experience the magic of the Northern Lights and the thrill of dog sledding on this overnight excursion from Tromsø! Welcoming adventurers from ages 3 and up.

Located in Northern Norway, Tromsø is one of Scandinavia's premier travel destinations and is known for its picturesque Arctic wilderness and numerous outdoor activities in the winter months. What better way to discover Tromsø than by embarking on a fun-filled overnight adventure that includes dog sledding, delicious local food, and traditional accommodations in a comfortable Lavvu tent?

Your adventure begins in Tromsø, where you will be picked up at the meeting point. You and your group will be taken on a scenic 25-minute drive to the camp, located on the nearby island of Kvaløya. Upon arrival, you will be greeted by the experienced guide and provided with thermal overalls and boots for you to stay warm and relax while waiting for the incredible natural spectacle of the Northern Lights!

Then, your guide will take you to the kennel where you'll meet and cuddle the adorable Alaskan Huskies. Afterwards, you'll be treated to a traditional dinner in a warm Gamme hut. You can try Bacalao, a traditional Norwegian fish dish made from locally sourced cod (vegetarian alternatives are available upon request, please specify when booking).

After your meal, you'll enjoy a relaxing evening around a roaring campfire. Far away from the city lights of Tromsø, you'll get to witness the breathtaking natural phenomenon of the Northern Lights! When you get tired, you can head to your Lavvu tent that you will share with the other guests. Furnished with soft reindeer skins and high-quality camping gear, you'll be cosy as you wrap yourself in a warm sleeping bag and enjoy the northern night.

The next day, after a delicious breakfast, you will be taken on a dog sledding adventure. Both self-drive or driven dog sled ride options are available, please specify when booking. Your guide will provide a safety briefing along with dog sledding techniques, also known as mushing. Be prepared for a rush of adrenaline as you traverse the snowy landscapes of Norway's wilderness pulled by an energetic team of Alaskan Huskies! Back at the camp, you will be served a hot lunch of Bidos (Sami reindeer stew) to re-energise before saying goodbye to your four-legged friends and returning to the original departure point in Tromsø.

It was a great experience. We booked the dog sledding including the overnight stay. The dog sledding could be a bit longer, though.

The activities were extremely well planned from the overnight stay down to the end of the dog sledding activity. The hosts explained everything in great detail and gave ample time for us to interact with the dogs. The hut that we lived in was extremely cozy and warm as well, an experience that I must recommend. You can tell that the hosts were extremely passionate about their jobs and it definitely fuelled my excitement for the activities. The meals that they provided were so good I had to keep getting seconds. I would definitely recommend signing up for both the overnight stay & dog sledding experience!
