About this activity

The Arctic Husky Safari 10 km is the longer self-drive dog sledding trip from Rovaniemi, about five hours door to door. Two people share a sled, one driving and one riding, and you swap at the halfway point so both get the runners. Transfers and full winter clothing are included.

Ten kilometres is the point where the ride stops being a photo stop and becomes a drive. It is long enough to settle into the rhythm of the team, feel the sled load and unload through the bends, and go quiet for a while. When you are not on the trail you are in a kota by the fire with hot berry juice, gingerbread and stories from the mushers.

The kennel in Jokela, built in 2025, is ours together with Husky World, long-time mushers and racers who live on site with the dogs. The dogs are conditioned to run, which is why the 10 km route suits them, and dog welfare sets the rules: team sizes, run lengths and rest are decided by what suits the dogs rather than the booking calendar.
