Are there dog sledding tours in Iceland in summer?
Yes, dog sledding tours are available in summer in the form of dog cart tours. Instead of sleds, the huskies pull a wheeled cart through the scenic landscape. This 1-hour dog cart tour with Siberian huskies near Reykjavik is a popular summer option, letting you get the feel of dog sledding even without snow.
Where can I meet Icelandic sled dogs?
You can meet sled dogs by booking a kennel visit with Siberian huskies in North Iceland. On this one-hour tour at a local farm, you can spend time with over 20 huskies, take photos, and learn about their training and care from professional mushers. When possible, visitors may also get the chance to see and play with puppies.
Is it worth going dog sledding in Iceland?
A dog sledding tour in Iceland can be a memorable experience for travelers interested in outdoor adventure and spending time with animals. These tours let you experience Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes in a truly special way, whether on snow in winter or by dog cart in summer. You’ll also learn about sled dog training and care from experienced mushers. If you enjoy active experiences and want to see Iceland from a different perspective, dog sledding is a great option to consider.
Can we pet the huskies on our dog sledding tour in Iceland?
Absolutely! Huskies may be incredibly energetic, but they’re also very affectionate and social dogs that love attention. Just remember to always ask your guide before petting the dogs.
Is there an age limit for dog sledding in Iceland?
The minimum age to participate in dog sledding is two years old. Children between 12 and 16 may, in some cases, be allowed to drive the sled themselves, depending on the guide’s assessment. People over 16 can drive the sled themselves. Always check the details for the specific dog sledding tour in Iceland that you book.
What should I wear for a dog sledding tour in Iceland?
Many dog sledding tours in Iceland take place in winter, so bring warm layers of winter clothing, sturdy winter boots, a windproof and waterproof jacket and pants, a hat, gloves, and sunglasses. Check the tour description to see whether a snowsuit is included.
Are dog sledding tours in Iceland canceled due to bad weather?
Yes, a dog sledding tour in Iceland may be canceled due to bad weather, as the weather in the country is often unpredictable. Snowstorms, strong winds, or severe storms can make it unsafe to run the tour. In such cases, you’ll typically receive a refund or the option to reschedule. Cancellations can happen well in advance or even on the day itself, depending on conditions.
Are Icelandic sheepdogs used for dog sledding in Iceland?
No, Icelandic sheepdogs are not used for dog sledding in Iceland. Although they’re a beloved local breed known for their herding abilities and friendly temperament, they’re better suited to farm work. If you’d like to see Icelandic sheepdogs, you can often spot them on farms in rural areas or meet them at animal experiences and petting zoos around the country.
Can I bring treats for the huskies?
Feeding the dogs during a dog sledding tour in Iceland is usually handled by the kennel staff to ensure the huskies’ health and training routines are maintained. However, some providers may allow guests to give a small treat, such as a dog-friendly biscuit, at the end of the tour. Treats are only given under the operator’s guidance, so it’s best to ask in advance.
Do I need to be in good shape to participate in dog sledding in Iceland?
Due to the conditions, dog sledding in Iceland can be physically demanding. Participants should be able to walk about 1.6 km without becoming exhausted. Dog driving is a sport and therefore requires physical participation. If you weigh over 100 kg, special arrangements will be made to accommodate you. Contact us at info@guidetoiceland.is if you have any questions.
Do huskies like pulling sleds?
Yes—athletic huskies have been bred and raised for generations specifically for this! Husky sledding has long been a tradition in large parts of the Arctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere, for example in Greenland, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. In Iceland, dog sledding is a relatively new phenomenon that has recently attracted a lot of interest.
Which dog breeds are used for sledding in Iceland?
Since there is no Icelandic husky breed, sledding in Iceland is typically done with Siberian huskies or Alaskan huskies. These breeds are known for their strength, endurance, and friendly nature.
Is dog sledding in Iceland suitable for families?
Yes, both dog sledding and husky tours in Iceland are family-friendly, and both sleds and dog carts can accommodate multiple passengers.
How much does a husky tour in Iceland cost?
The price of a husky tour in Iceland depends on the tour length, location, and season. Shorter tours or kennel visits are usually cheaper, while longer excursions—such as glacier sledding or multi-hour adventures—are at the higher end.
