Dog Cart Tour and Puppy Cuddles

You don’t have to wait until winter to enjoy a ride with Alaskan Huskies. With our dog cart trips, you get to experience autumn in Arctic Alta and get to try dog sledging before the first snow. Get a feeling of how mushers train their huskies in the autumn and experience the arctic forest as it changes colour. Like any other athletes, our huskies must train a lot before the racing season starts. The huskies are arctic dogs and do not enjoy running in temperatures above 15 °C. Training season starts in autumn when the temperatures fall, but before the first snow arrives. The ride takes you into the Arctic Forest as it changes into Autumn, past the Alta River and along the dirt roads where we have been training our race dogs for two generations. - Pick up at 09:00: from Alta Tourist Office - Equipment handout: Thermal suits, hat, gloves and boots (if the weather requires it) Safety brief - Approximately one-hour self-drive dog cart tour (depending on weather conditions) - 2-3 Persons per cart - Cuddle and praise the huskies for their effort - Storytelling in Traditional Sami Lavvo with hot drinks and snacks - Transport back to the Tourist Information in the centre of Alta
