Would you like to try dogsledding and want some extra time with six eager huskies, we have a slightly longer trip on Ustedalsfjorden, right in the National Park village Geilo. Our camp is in walking distance from the train station and most hotels in Geilo.
When dogsledding with Geilo Husky you get to run your own sled with some of the best trained Alaskan Huskies in Norway. Two persons share one sled. One sit in and one drive the sled, halfway you can swap if you want.
You get instructions from experienced mushers before you get to drive the sled all by yourself for about 40-50 min. Average distance are 10 km. After the tour there will be time to great the dogs and enjoy hot drink and Norwegian snack by the fire. Then it’s also time to tell you about our dog-life and answer all your questions.
From 1th April, the dogs move up to Hardangervidda by the Halne Fjellstugu.
