Itinerary

Your visit begins at Fitjakot Husky Farm, where you’ll get to know playful huskies and hear about their personalities, training, and life at the farm. A thermal overall is provided, and your guide will lead a safety briefing before you set off.

Take a passenger seat while a professional musher controls the cart. You’ll connect with nature and watch the excited dogs in action. Depending on the season, you may even catch glimpses of Iceland’s vibrant wildlife and colorful wildflowers. After the ride, spend a little longer with the dogs, ask the team questions, and snap photos before finishing with refreshments inside a heated hut.

 

The total duration covers the entire farm visit, not just the trail portion. Weather and ground conditions determine the route, pace, and riding time.

Before each departure, the dogs’ health, comfort, and readiness to run are assessed. Guests can expect the tour to be adapted according to that assessment.

  • Depending on conditions, the cart ride may be shorter than planned.
  • The full tour usually lasts around 1 hour but may take up to 1.5 hours.
  • The well-being of the dogs is always the priority.
  • Pickup and transfer to the meeting point are not included. Fitjakot Husky Farm is about 20 minutes from downtown Reykjavík, with secure on-site parking for cars and RVs.
