All your dogsledding clothing and equipment

Head to a husky lodge near the fjord-side city of Alta, known for its views of the Northern Lights. Have fun with the puppies and then climb into a thermal suit and learn how to handle a dogsled before riding it through the evening air. Take a hot shower and sit down for a delicious dinner in a beautiful, renovated barn. If you’re feeling brave, take a dip in the outdoor-jacuzzi and warm up in the sauna before settling into your cosy Tipi for the night. Watch the stars through the floor-to-ceiling window and if you’re lucky get a glimpse of the Aurora.

Day 1

Load up the dogs and drive your pack onto the Finnmark Plateau - 22,000 square kilometres of untouched wilderness. Stop for lunch along the trail and then ride to a traditional mountain cabin. Tend to your pack, eat some dinner and then relax in the sauna. Keep a close eye on the sky, as the Aurora might appear above you at any moment.
