Jokkmokkguiderna

We did an overnight experience and had an absolute ball. The dogs were all well behaved and even had their pet border collie come along for the adventure. We were blessed with absolute magical views. Matti was hilarious and we really enjoyed our time with him and the dogs. Thanks Matti and Stina!

Lovely adventure to the gate to of Sarek! =========================================================== Second tour this year with Jokkmokkguiderna and I just keep enjoying it. The tour “With dog sled to the gate of Sarek National Park” started and finished at Saltoluokta Mountain Station which is located in a lovely setting and great place to stay in. The tour starts off with a quite long uphill stretch but do not be scared off as you will have an amazing view once you reach the top. Continuing on you will mainly have mountain scenery but there will be parts when you go through the lowlands with some forest as well. Due to the pandemic we needed to change two nights to winter camping in tents instead of cabins which was I whole new experience to me. So you need to be prepared for changes to the original program due to weather (or a pandemic) as safety always comes first the guests and the dogs when the guide Matti plans the route of the day. I have praised Jokkmokkguiderna in my other reviews, so please check them out, as I will not put in all details again in this review again. Thanks again Stina, Matti and all the dogs for the memories! Special thanks to Bettan, Nenana, Mike, Sofia, Zemlan and Homy for put up with me during the weeks! =========================================================== Second year, still amazing! I went last year for my first dog-mushing tour and was hooked to say at least. So I booked again for this year (pandemic or not) and I was NOT disappointed. This time I started off with the tour called “Crossing Lapland with dog sled” and I must say a great mix in both the scenery/nature and different accommodations. We started in Jokkmokk and finished in Saltoluokta Mountain Station which first gave you the lowlands and forest and then it transformed to spectacular mountain views during the second part of the tour. Stina, Matti and all the dogs take great care of you through all the steps in this adventure. Easy booking and any questions around it is swiftly answered and the equipment used on the trip all new and/or well maintained. You will get all the support needed from your guide (Matti) who is very knowledgeable but it will still require (hard) work from yourself as guest, as you will help in all activities needed, not just standing on the sleigh. Not to miss out the dogs, they are so lovely but above all well trained and really enjoying pulling that sleigh but they will turn and look at you if you don’t help them by “kicking” in the big uphill’s. Absolutely 5 out of 5! =========================================================== Perfectly arranged dog sled tour in Lapland! I went for the 8 days tour called “Dog mushing in the taiga of Swedish Lapland” and it was outstanding. Jokkmokkguiderna provides high quality clothing and equipment. Their dogs are well trained and super nice to cuddle with. Our guide Matti took well care of us throughout the adventure and he had good insight and knowledge of the area. It involves some hard work, you will be tired, you will be dirty, you will likely freeze (at least a little bit) but if you are up for that then it is an eye opener experience. Jokkmokkguiderna have my highest recommendations!
