07:00/ 08:30 Meeting at the railway station in Petrozavodsk with the
guide and transfer to the husky farm (30 km). Breakfast upon arrival.
After breakfast you will get acquainted with huskies, one of the
friendliest dog breeds in the world. Your guide will teach you how to
harness huskies and how to prepare sledges for the ride, and give you
full instruction in handling your sled and caring for your husky team.
After the sledges are ready and the dogs are harnessed, begins a true
adventure. Joyful huskies’ bark will break the silence of the sleeping
Karelian forest and color it with vivid emotions.
Today we are heading to the picturesque Kangasyarvi Lake. During our
trip, we will make a stop for picnic. After we reach our destination,
the dogs will have some rest and we will explore the untouched winter
landscapes of Karelian forest with snow shoes. In the evening, we will
enjoy hot dinner cooked over the open fire, share our impressions and
enjoy the atmosphere of a winter night far from civilization. You can
stay outside as long as you like to look at the night sky full of stars
or even to witness the Northern Lights, if you are lucky, before you go
to sleep in a big common tent.
