Dog sledding in Svalbard

Dog sledding in an Arctic landscape is both peaceful and beautiful. In winter, the dogs pull the sled across a snow-covered landscape, while in summertime they pull specially made wheeled sleds. Regardless of the season, it’s an unforgettable adventure.

The sound of eager dogs breathing is all that breaks the silence. Powered only by your new four-legged friends, the sled is pulled at a pleasant pace so there is plenty of time for impressions to sink in. You can admire the white-covered Arctic desert both day and night, in the moonlight, beneath the magical Northern Lights or in bright sunshine. It depends entirely on which season you visit Svalbard. But no matter when you choose to come, you will have a close-up experience with the huskies and the nature.

Prepare to embark on an awe-inspiring Arctic expedition, also with cute puppies, as we dive deep into the enchanting world of dog sledding in Svalbard. This video chronicles an extraordinary day in the heart of the Arctic, where my mother and I had the privilege of experiencing the sheer wonder of Svalbard's pristine landscapes.

Our adventure begins in Longyearbyen, the largest settlement on Svalbard and a gateway to the frozen wilderness. Here, we were greeted by a team of magnificent Siberian Huskies, eagerly awaiting their moment to shine. The bond between these incredible dogs and their mushers is a testament to the enduring partnership that has made dog sledding a timeless tradition in this icy realm.

As we set out on our dog sled, the Arctic landscapes unfolded before our eyes in a breathtaking panorama. Vast snowfields stretched to the horizon, and towering mountains painted an awe-inspiring backdrop.

Our Siberian Husky team was a force of nature, effortlessly gliding us through this pristine wilderness. The Svalbard scenery is unlike anything you've ever seen, with every twist and turn of the sled revealing a new facet of the Arctic's natural beauty.

Our journey through the frozen landscapes of Svalbard was not just an adventure; it was a profound connection with the Arctic environment and the incredible dogs that call this place home, not to mention the adorable cute puppies. The experience left an indelible mark on our hearts.

more:

Last year at the end of March I went to Spitsbergen, Svalbard, for a week. Naturally I had to take the opportunity and go dog sledding there. Until then I never stood on a dog sled so i'd call myself anything but a musher. As you can see things worked out pretty well despite my lack of experience.

The video might be a bit deluding tho - dog sledding was actually much work and quite exhausting. At minus 27 degrees things also get quite chilly.

Enjoy - and since this is only my second video - tell me what you think!
