Drive your own husky team through Lapland’s forests on a small-group experience designed to be active, personal, and authentic — even outside the winter season.

Operated by The Original Aurora Hunters®, Arctic GM is a family-run company with roots in Lapland dating back to the 1600s, combining local knowledge with a strong focus on quality and guest experience.

After pickup, you’ll arrive at a secluded husky farm on private land, away from busy tourist areas. Meet the energetic huskies and receive clear instructions before setting off on a 5–8 km self-driven safari using a wheeled cart designed for autumn conditions. Each cart is shared between two guests, with the option to switch drivers.

This is also the huskies’ training season, when they are most active after summer, offering a unique and engaging experience in nature.

After the ride, spend time with the dogs before relaxing by the fire with hot drinks and a traditional Lapland barbecue.
