Full Day Experience

Immerse Yourself In The Life of a musher

Have you ever considered taking up the exhilarating sport of dog sledding? If so, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you: a full day experience providing a glimpse into the intricate life of a musher.

Your day begins bright and early at the kennel, where you’ll greet our enthusiastic canine companions. Following this, a brief session on dog sledding and a safety talk will be provided. Afterward, it’s time to ready your team and prepare your sled under the watchful eye of your guide. As your anchor is lifted, your adventure commences – heart pumping, senses heightened, and your team eagerly pulling you through the frozen wilderness of ice and snow.

Throughout the journey, we’ll pause for a fika (Swedish coffee and cake) and lunch, providing opportunities for photos. Once the journey concludes, you’ll assist in bringing all the dogs home, ensuring they settle down for the night.

No prior experience is necessary for sled driving. All drivers and passengers will be assigned an appropriate number of dogs based on their weight, maintaining a balanced ratio to prevent sled overloading.

As dog sledding is an active sport, having a good fitness level is advantageous. For instance, our dogs may require your assistance on uphill sections.

  An unbeatable dog sledding adventure
Despite unusually poor snow conditions in the area the team at Wild Spirit worked hard to ensure that our dog sledding experience could continue, proposing an alternative, beautiful route. The dogs were amazing, and the team welcoming, friendly and very helpful to our bunch of dog sledding beginners. It was an exhilarating adventure that has made our holiday in the Are area. Not to be missed.

  Best Part of My Trip!
This was the highlight of my trip to Sweden. Richard and his team showed the upmost professionalism and care.The dogs were lovely and ready to go! They take time to explain everything to you so if you have no prior experience, it'll be totally okay!Our safety was always first and learning how to use the sled was easy!What impressed me the most was the Richard's and Claire's fun personalities. Conversation was great and coming back to the Kennel and meeting the rest of the dogs was nice! We won't ever forget how they helped us when we ran into an emergency AFTER our visit. I know there's other dog sledding companies to chose from but you really must pick Wild Spirit for both their dogs and their humans!

  Great bushcraft / wilderness day with Wild Spirit in Ottsjö, North Sweden (near Åre )
Oscar (14) and Harry (12) spent a really great day with Richard doing some bushcraft - making fire, finding mushrooms, exploring the forest and learning about plants and their qualities. They had an amazing day.
