Gunni and Maria, both most delightful, welcomed us into their home sharing their love and enthusiasm for all things husky. We had plenty of time for petting and cuddling before our hike and my daughter and I would go back in a heartbeat if Akureyri wasn’t so far from Chicago. The best is all their huskies live in the house with Gunni and Maria, not in a kennel and are all very happy, healthy, extremely friendly and well trained.
A truly awesome experience

I had the best day walking the huskies along a picturesque track. Gunni and Maria were very hospitable back at their husky farm. The dogs loved having us around and patting them. Great for adults and families.
A great option for dog lovers

It was so fun meeting all the Huskies and seeing all their excitement when new people came around or even when the other dogs were playing with each other. They were so funny all wanting attention and competing for attention and wanting pets. The hike itself was great! I loved taking an easy stroll through the forest with some excited huskies! They were so excited and friendly. Definitely glad I found this as an option. And Gunnar and Maria were great to talk to while there. And Gunnar gave us a lot of good info about Iceland while walking with him
Husky meeting of a different kind:-)

This was an incredible experience! We got to love on the huskies and go on a private hike with the huskies and their loving father, Gunnar! You can tell just how much Gunnar and María love each and every one of their 28 huskies. We loved getting to spend time with all of them and learn about their lives in Akureyri.
