About this experience
Experience Siberian Husky Kennel visit in North Iceland
Join us for an unforgettable visit to our unchained Siberian Husky Kennel at Vallholt Farm, conveniently located between Akureyri and Lake Mývatn in North Iceland.
Warm Welcome at Vallholt Kennel
Upon arrival at Vallholt Kennel, you will be greeted by one of our experienced Mushers and our beautiful Siberian Huskies. We ensure your comfort by providing access to toilet facilities and offering additional clothing and gear, so you can enjoy the experience to the fullest.
Meet the Huskies
Next, you will have the chance to meet the dogs up close. Our Musher will share fascinating details about each Husky, including their personalities and family connections, allowing you to get to know these remarkable animals.
During the Kennel visit, your Musher will explain the basics of dog sledding and how to work and train alongside these incredible dogs and take care of them. There will be ample time to spend at the kennel, where you can cuddle, and take photos with the friendly Siberian Huskies.

Cancellation for this tour
Free cancellation until 24 hours before departure; no refund after that. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.
Why this one and not the cheaper one?
The nearest cheaper Reykjavík Luggage Storage in BSI Bus Terminal from BagBee is €12 — €61 less. Here is every difference we can actually measure.
| Snow Dogs · €73 | BagBee · €12 | |
|---|---|---|
| Changing your mind | Free until 24 h before | Free until 2 h before |
| How hard it is | Very easy | Easy |
The €61 buys you free cancellation up to 24 h before. Whether that is worth it is your call — but that is what the difference is.
Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.

We had an Amazing time! If you love dogs, this place is great and they truly love their animals. You get to pet all of the dogs and they are all loving and very friendly! The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!! Be prepared for massive knats where you will need to wear the provided head mesh. They provide warm suits, gloves, beanie, and an insect repellant head netting. The bugs and dog yelping could be over-stimulating for some people who are sensitive to noise and bugs.....But we Loved it!!

I cannot say enough about this experience - it was magical! The best part of our Icelandic experience. The staff was fantastic and shared their knowledge and the dogs were amazing - you can tell how much they are cared for and loved. I cannot recommend this enough to anyone wanting an adventure who also loves dog cuddles!!

We had an amazing time. Staff is super friendly, you’re provided with an overall, scarf, gloves and goggles if you don’t have any so you stay warm. They also offer to take as many pictures of you as you like. You can say hello and cuddle the dogs before the sled trip and after. What we loved especially was the dogs were amazingly cared for. Everything was clean and every poop was picked up by the carers immediately, all dogs were well groomed and in their kennels with their friends. They were well socialized with humans and other dogs, but not pressured to be cuddly. The ones that wanted cuddles came to us, the others could stay back. The staff knows every dog by their name. Definitely recommend and we will be back
