Huskies and Reindeer Excursions

Husky and Reindeer Safaris – Authentic Arctic Adventures in the Heart of Nature

Set out on an unforgettable journey through the heart of the North and meet the Arctic’s friendliest guides – the huskies and reindeer. Hotel Iso-Syöte’s husky and reindeer safaris offer magical experiences combining northern silence, untouched wilderness, and ancient modes of travel.


Charming Huskies – Speed, Snow and Connection

Feel the crisp winter air on your cheeks and the eager pull of the husky team behind you as they dash across the snowy trail. Our professional guides ensure a safe and thrilling ride, during which you’ll also learn about these intelligent and energetic dogs. A husky safari is the perfect blend of speed, serenity, and deep connection with nature.


Reindeer Safari – A Peaceful Journey into Tradition

Step back in time as you settle into a reindeer-drawn sleigh covered in warm furs. Glide gently through the snowy landscape at the pace of tradition. Along the way, our guides share stories about reindeer herding and its deep cultural significance in Sámi life and northern heritage.
