Cross-country skiing with dogs is a completely different way to experience a skiing trip in the beautiful mountain area Synnfjellet, Innlandet, Norway. This activity is called dog sledding! Our happy huskies are just an hour from Lillehammer and about three hours from Oslo, ready to take you on an adventure you'll never forget. This is an adventure for those who can ski, including children! A perfect gift idea for adventurers!

The tour can accommodate a group of four people, and we can add two more experienced individuals who are proficient in both skiing and handling dogs. Maximum of 2 children. We aim to stay together as much as possible, while also maintaining a respectful distance. We always respect other people on the skiing trail.

TIPS FOR DRESSING!

As we say here in Norway; "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes."

Here are some tips and recommendations on winter clothing to keep you warm on our trips:

1. Inner layer: should be something that breathes, I recommend wool. Do not use cotton!

2. Thicker layers: I recommend wool, but you can also use fleece.

3. Last layer: windproof jacket and trousers, sometimes waterproof too, in mild conditions, but remember that it must be breathable material. Recommend a good hood where it goes in front of the face. Then you get the best protection for your face

4. A thicker jacket is fine to bring, which you can adjust by taking the jacket off and on. Here I use a down jacket, but a padded winter jacket or parka is also fine. This is especially good for the long trips, peak trips, Snaufjellet, overnight trips. A good hood that goes in front of the face is also something to think about as hoods (especially with fur trim) stop the wind from cooling the face. (I have a couple of parkas I can lend!)

5. Wool socks, maybe even two, if the shoes allow it. If it is too tight, it will have the opposite effect. It is important to be able to move your legs, otherwise they will get cold.

6. Good winter boots that are tight and not too tight!

7. Good warm and windproof hat and mittens. Do not wear gloves! I recommend having thin woolen gloves to use inside the mittens or keep it in your pockets, for use when handling the dogs.

8. Wool collar/collar to cover the skin from the weather and wind.

9. Snow goggles, not a must, but I recommend if it's very windy and snowy at the same time.
