Great Day with the Huskies

Cindy_B, Aug 2025

Loved the day with the huskies! The hike itself was a bit challenging. Wet, uneven elevated terrain. The guides gave me boots and waterproof pants. Boots did not fit well so I chose to return early from the hike. I totally loved spending my time with the huskies and puppies rather than hiking. They had over 200 dogs and I petted every one of them! Lunch was fish stew, bread and chocolate cake. The soup was delicious and very filling. Overall, I had an excellent tour with the huskies.

Super fun!

This was definitely one of the highlights of our stay in Tromso! The experience started with a walk through a beautiful area with some incredibly energetic dogs and continued with a puppy encounter with the most friendly and curious puppies imaginable. Whether you're a dog lover or just looking for a fun outdoor activity, this is an incredibly fun experience and a great off-season alternative to dog sledding!

Definitely recommend if you love dogs

Great experience!! Large bus picked us up at the Radisson Blu hotel in Tromso. Approx 30 min comfortable bus ride to the Sled Dog residence. We were given boots and rain suits which were welcomed since it was cool and rainy. They did a great job of keeping us dry for our dog hike. The dogs were quite thrilled to see us as they knew they were going out on a hike. They were quite vocal which seems typical of sled dogs (the dogs' excitement and vocalness was surprising the first time I heard it when I did a sled dog experience in Canada)!! My dogs back home get excited when they want to go for a walk or ride but to a lesser extent. It was enjoyable to hear them get so pumped up. I would have enjoyed a longer hike in retrospect but then again I could have hung out there all day with the dogs! If I were to go back to Tromso I would reach out to see if they offered a longer excursion. After the dog hike, we got to hang out with the puppies for a bit and then had time to spend with the other adult sled dogs in their area. The adult area was free from dog feces which showed staff tended to the dogs. The dogs had water and were healthy appearing. The guides were approachable and allowed for extra Q/A time during our meal. They look after the dogs and explained if a dog is getting a bit long in the teeth or injured, or less interested in sledding they look to adopt out the dogs. The guides mentioned one person started their adoption program during covid. From there it grew and continues to this day. Lunch was pleasant - Norwegian stew and coffee/tea in a warm building. Overall I definitely enjoyed this excursion and would recommend as an off season alternative when dog sledding isn't an option.
