4.Tornio: Husky Sled Ride with Hot Drink

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 17 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $229

At Sea Lapland Safaris in Kemi, you share a sled with one other person and take turns driving a team of Alaskan huskies along a 5-kilometer trail. Staff provide winter clothing and safety instruction, while kennel owner Damo is known for explaining the dogs’ daily life with warmth and detail. Pickup is available from selected Tornio-Haparanda hotels.

“This is the one! Stop looking, nothing else will beat this experience. I went with my partner, my parents (65 and 73 years old) and my children (4 and 9 years old) and we all had the most magical experience. Damo is authentic, passionate, kind and informative. The dogs are his children and the love and care he provides them is evident. The husky ride itself was obviously the highlight- the feeling and the view will forever be ingrained in my mind. But it didn’t stop there- the hot drink was a great way to warm up and the hot donuts were enjoyed by all. My son went back out…”
