Located about 17km from Kiruna's main tourist area, the kennel is secluded from other companies. Guests are picked up free of charge and provided with warm clothing before entering the dark Poikkijärvi Woods. The sled seats four people, with one of the experienced guides driving while guests sit and enjoy the ride through the wilderness. The team consists of 12 to 14 Alaskan Huskies, which guests may feed a piece of meat after the tour if they wish. Participants can assist in preparing and securing the dogs. The visit ends at a fire hut where a warm drink and snack are served over an open wood fire.
