Kiruna Husky

A BIT ABOUT US AT KIRUNA HUSKY

We are an arctic nature guide company in Kiruna. We use dog sled to explore the nature around Kalixfors. In the winter, you can try dog sledding, snowshoe hiking, ice fishing, igloo building adventures, and more with us every year from October through April. You don’t want to wait for the snow to come? Also during the autumn season we invite you to join us on our training tours and enjoy the crisp autumn weather and the impressive strength of our huskies! Even in the summer, you are invited to come and meet the huskies and us and spend a few hours with 40 happy dogs! We have an open and creative atmosphere – if you have an idea for something you would like to do in the Arctic nature, do not hesitate to contact us and we will do our best to make your dreams come true!

Our team!

Sebastian

Sebastian was always a dog lover and adventurer, he fell in love with dog sledding in 2009. Moreover, the northern Scandinavian lifestyle and working outdoors felt like home. After learning the trade, he leaped, by putting down roots in Kiruna and starting Kiruna Husky in 2011.

CHIARA

Chiara should be considered the brains behind this operation. You’ll find her to be friendly, warm and inviting. She keeps everyone in line with a firm but kind hand. Devoted to the dogs, she keeps a close eye on their health and wellbeing.

evija

We call her Liiindaaa! Sharp, funny, open, and full of energy, she lights up the room—but be sure to follow her instructions carefully, or you might end up on her bad side! Her infectious love for our dogs spreads to everyone around her, and her favorite is Athos. Her happy place? Singing her heart out in the car.

MARTINS

Tiins Macho is always ready with a joke on his lips and a song in his head. A creative drone and GoPro videographer, he brings a unique flair to the team. In the mornings, you’ll often find him giving snowmobile and handling instructions. And, of course, his favorite dog is Socke.

Svenja

Svenii is Chiara’s sister and has been part of our team for eight years, guiding her first tour at just 14. Her calm and comforting energy puts everyone at ease, whether they have two legs or four. While she’s fantastic with both kids and adults, her true love is for the dogs. Her favorite? Phil.

Benedikt

Biins is calm, steady, and patient, making him a thoughtful and detail-oriented guide. He has a passion for snowshoe hikes and joined our team through Svenja. Most importantly, his favorite dog is Orca!

Hemma

Hemms is a conscientious and highly sympathetic A+ student. With a sharp sense of humor, a love for music, and a deep appreciation for the night sky, he’s a quick learner with a calm demeanor. His favorite dog is Bonham.

Cate

Cate is our talented marketing and graphic designer. Unlike the rest of the team, she gets to stay warm indoors; something she’s definitely grateful for! As a dog lover, having 40 furry co-workers is a pretty impressive perk.

dogs

Our sled dogs are more than just teammate; they’re the soul of Kiruna Husky. Each has a unique role and personality, from energetic leaders to powerful wheel dogs. Loyal, hardworking, and full of heart, they inspire us every day, making every snowy adventure unforgettable.

Husky Welfare

The welfare of our huskies is our top priority. They are happy, healthy, and cared for according to their individual needs. During the winter, they get to do what they love most—running (second only to eating)! In the summer, when they aren’t running, they enjoy plenty of playtime with their kennel mates and the freedom to roam on our large property. With nutritious food and ample exercise, these canine athletes are some of the friendliest and happiest you’ll ever meet. We treat each dog as an individual, ensuring they receive the best care tailored to their unique needs and personalities.
