About this experience
This isn’t just another mountain walk – it’s your chance to explore the stunning Sälen highlands side by side with a real sled dog. Our friendly huskies love summer just as much as winter, and they’re more than happy to join you on the trail. You’ll get the rare chance to walk with a husky, hold the leash, and feel the special bond that forms when human and dog move through nature together.
Guided by passionate outdoor experts, you’ll learn about local wildlife, plants, and mountain lore, all while breathing in the fresh air and soaking up panoramic views. Whether you’re a family, a group of friends, or simply curious about hiking in Sälen – this is a fun, personal, and unforgettable way to experience the fjäll.
