About Tromsø Aurora Husky

Tromsø Aurora Husky puts adventure and quality first. Only a handful of guests are allowed to visit our kennel. In this focus to deliver quality and create unique experiences for the guests who visit us, we serve local food, and all tents are handmade and hand-sewn by our Sami people. The dogsleds are handmade in Norway and Sweden, and we serve salted and dried meat that has won awards for Norway's best salted ham. The clothes I lend to guests are either made of leather or cotton.


We believe that our dogs get the best treatment by having fewer guests, allowing them to thrive in harmony with nature and the guests who visit us. Animal welfare is our most important factor in the kennel. Our season is based on three months during the winter in Tromsø, and in the summer, the dogs live on Norway's third-largest glacier, experiencing various adventures and destinations full of joy. When not traveling, they live on a peaceful mountain farm, where they can run freely together as a herd. This is important for their muscles, joints, and maintaining their pack mentality.



We only use Norwegian raw materials; here again, only the best quality is good enough. Nothing is more important than ensuring the dogs are well and live a varied everyday life, with the right balance between leisure and work, which they enjoy the most. I am one of the very few who travel with their dogs around the world to experience adventures together. I love nature, animals, and adventure—that's what I'm passionate about, and I want to share our everyday life and passion with our guests.



Everyone is welcome to join our tours. We drive up to 16 dogs per sled, allowing families to sit together, with the option for one person to steer the sled themselves. This is very unique. Each team gets a guide on the sled, ensuring the dogs are guided safely through the landscape, while also feeling the power of a large team.



If you have mobility challenges, please let us know, and we will adapt the experience for everyone.



On every trip, a hot meal is provided. Please inform us if you require a vegetarian or vegan option. Hot drinks such as coffee, cocoa, or tea are available. We also serve salted and dried meat from one of Norway's best raw materials. We have handpicked warm clothes and shoes for our guests, made from quality materials. There is no age limit for our trips, but please bring the necessary equipment for transporting infants and children. Transport to and from the center of Tromsø is included.
