Description

Experience the beauty of North Iceland on a private husky hiking tour in Akureyri. This two-hour experience through a stunning woodland combines the joy of being pulled by friendly huskies with breathtaking views of Eyjafjordur fjord, private guides, free photos, and refreshments.

Your private tour in North Iceland begins when you arrive at a cozy, family-run kennel just a 15-minute drive outside Akureyri. A pick-up service from central locations in town is also available for an extra cost for those who want a hassle-free start to their journey.

You’ll be greeted by your expert local guide and a lively pack of huskies, ready to be your companions for the day. The guide will introduce you to the dogs, help you fit the harnesses, and give you a quick briefing on how to enjoy this one-of-a-kind hiking experience. 

The huskies are friendly, energetic, and love meeting new people, making this tour a perfect blend of adventure and companionship.

In addition, because this is a private tour, the route can be tailored to your preferences. Whether you prefer a leisurely walk with plenty of photo stops or a more adventurous trek, your guide will select the best trail.

The hike will take you through Halsaskogur, a private woodland with scenic trails offering breathtaking views of Eyjafjordur, Iceland’s longest fjord. As you walk through forests, grassy paths, and old mine routes, you’ll feel the power of the huskies as they gently pull you along. 

The huskies are experienced hikers and are harnessed in a way that allows them to assist your pace while you enjoy the scenery.

During the walk, your guide will share stories about the dogs’ lives, their sledding adventures, and the history of the area. You’ll have plenty of time to take photos, capturing memories of your walk with these beautiful and expressive animals.

The combination of fresh mountain air, peaceful surroundings, and playful dogs makes this experience both energizing and relaxing.

After your hike, you’ll be invited into the family home where the huskies live. Here, you can relax with a warm cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate while enjoying some quality time with the dogs. 

Expect plenty of husky cuddles, belly rubs, and wagging tails, as these affectionate dogs love attention and meeting new friends.

This two-hour private experience is perfect for families with children, couples, or anyone looking for a memorable and heartwarming adventure in North Iceland. The intimate setting ensures that you and your group will have personalized attention from the guide and plenty of time to bond with the huskies.
