4-hour experience with authentic Greenlandic dogsledding
Unlike in other parts of the world, dog sledding in Greenland is not a tourist activity – it is an authentic part of Greenlandic culture and is deeply rooted in the local lifestyle. Dog Sledding Discovery tour is the perfect way to explore this unique part of Arctic culture and the bond between sledge dogs and the humans.
The adventure tour is approximately 4 hours long and will take you to Qiterlinnguaq – a perfect place to enjoy the snow-covered landscape. After some uphill climbs, a hut shaped like a UFO reveals itself to you, and it is a nice spot to take a break and have some food to boost your energy. If requested beforehand, you may have the chance to enter this UFO-shaped hut.
Please note the price is based on 2 persons per group.
Sledge dogs are not pets! They are working animals and trusted buddies of their owners. Even though they look fluffy and cute, the wild instinct remains strong within their genes. You should always keep a safe distance with them and never approach, pet or feed them, no matter what!
