Sus over vidda! Fra valp til sledehund. 70 hunder og valper tilgjengelig for deg. Eget hundespann på alle vinterturene. Møt ulven. Linja for deg som virkelig vil bli et hundemenneske!

Hundekjøring handler om sterke polarhunder, opptrening av valper, stell, trening og sledetur på Finnmarksvidda. Det er for deg som drømmer om hund og et spennende friluftsliv.

Alta har det største hundekjørermiljøet i Norge, og i mars kommer langt over tusen hunder til Alta for å delta i Finnmarksløpet, Europas lengste hundeløp. Vi er med som hjelpere og funksjonærer. På langturen vår i april får du ansvar for ditt eget hundespann og oppleve det mest storslagne av natur i Nord Troms og Finnmark.


Slik ser året du blir et ekte frilufts- og hundemenneske ut:

There are lakes, climbing areas, and ski terrain. Click into skis right out the dorm door. Alta river runs north from Sautso, northern Europe's biggest river canyon. There are lush valleys, long fjords, steep peaks, and glaciers between the southern Finnmark tundra and northern Finnmark alps.
