Date: 17th March 2023 - 24th March 2023

Location: Norway and Sweden

Event Type: Trek

Distance: 270km

Overview


This challenge is to sled 270km from Norway, into Sweden through untouched nature, in order to finish at the world famous Ice Hotel (the original!) in Jukkasjarvi!

You will begin in the Arctic city of Tromso, where you will make your way to the Dog Sled Centre to meet your husky companions. After meeting and greeting your furry friends, you will then dive straight into the spirit of adventure and spend your first night in a traditional Lavvo, surrounding the roaring fire. You will even have the chance to experience the Northern lights!

Suitable for beginners for sledding as full training will be given – all you need to join our challenge is a thirst for extreme adventure!

This is one of the most popular charity challenges and is oversubscribed year-on-year… a truly unforgettable experience awaits you.
