Dog sledding

Ever wondered what it's like to be a musher?

This can be your chance! Hemsedal Husky offers "Self-drive" dog sledding! Meaning you will be in charge of your own mushing team, with the guide driving his own in front. 

Choose where you will be picked up. After a 30 minutes drive from the center of Hemsedal you will arrive at Hemsedal Husky center.  

Here you will meet a bunch of exited dogs! You will be guidet in how to prepare the sled and given an introduction to dog sledding before take off. No prior experience is needed. 

You will share the sled with another guest; one driving, one riding it as the passenger, and the halfway point you will switch.
