2 day dog sled adventure

The dog sled is an important part of the Greenlandic culture. Through the ages it was the only means of transportation during the winter months when the land was covered with ice and snow.

On this 2-day trip, you will ride in the sled on Kangerlussuaq Fjord with snow-clad mountains on both sides before ascending the terrain of the mountain sides. In this area you are all alone, surrounded by the magnificent Greenlandic nature. Usually, you will sleep in a hunting cabin (though sometimes a tent is used). At night, you relax in the hunting cabin but you will also go outside in the magnificent polar night. With a little luck the northern lights will dance in the sky above you.

Together with your sled driver you will experience the rugged, fascinating Greenlandic nature, where man, animal and wilderness merge in perfect harmony. On this tour, you are a part of the team and you will help out cooking, chopping ice, gathering snow for the coffee, packing the sled and feeding the dogs.

This tour is quite strenuous at times, and requires a reasonably good physical condition on the part of the participants. Dogsled tours are not recommended for people with back problems, as they can be bumpy rides.
