Unmissable!
This is really an unmissable adventure if you are in Finland in the winter. Lauri’s passion for his animals is clear and it is wonderful to just spend time with the huskies even when not sledding. I highly recommend taking a longe trip into Riisitinturi if you can - the change in scenery is breathtaking. Driving a sled is much harder than it looks but great fun to have a go! The dogs are probably used to inexperienced drivers and will see you right! Dress warmly and make sure you cover up with their blanket…. The dog go to the toilet…. a lot…..at speed…. right at face level

Amazing private two day husky safari!
We did a two day husky safari with Lauri on our first day in Lapland. It was a private tour with just the two of us and Lauri as a guide. An experience we’ll never forget! The park is beautiful, the dogs are amazing and Lauri is an amazing guide and person. He knows all his 90 dogs by name and treats them very well! We slept in the wilderness hut which was very nice with a private sauna. Lauri prepared all the meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) which were delicious! In short: the two day husky safari at Kota Husky is a wonderful experience which anyone who is going to Lapland should do! Big shout out to Kello, Touhi, Serious, Karna, Kinos, Terwa, Kippiena, Hongo, Pumba, Hoppe and Pihka! Sweetest dogs in Lapland.

Magical experience
We did the 30 km trip on Saturday 22nd Feb with temperatures just around the -1 mark with several feet and even meters of snow around the national park. Was a real escape into the wilderness. We were fortunate to have been part of a small group (6 adults including guide and 2 children approx 10 yrs old). This is amazing experience for us all and our daughter (10) loved the whole trip from the moment of stepping foot inside Kota Husky and being met by very friendly dogs and staff the smile is still with her even though we are back home now. A memory that will be treasured for a lifetime. It truly is a magical place to visit and the dogs are treated likely family members, the noise they make as you approach the sleds is just joyful to hear and they are so eager to get underway. The landscape in wintertime is mesmerizing. Thank you to all at Kota Husky for such a wonderful time.
