With the huskies, we go on skiing excursions and sled rides in the wilderness of Lapland. For families, partners, couples and friends only. You can also come alone, but we do not accept large groups.

After having experienced many different safari providers in Lapland, I can tell you that none match the wholeistic, personalized, intuitive and plainly loving approach taken by Aksana and her partner Anti of Husky, Yoga and Nature. This inspiring couple have opened up their home to 18 perky husky pups, and the lucky traveler. My girlfriend and I recently had the pleasure of participating in their 20km husky sledding safari. The first part of the journey took place on the ice covered Sierijärvi lake, which was a great introduction, building up confidence, balance and repore with our ecstatic husky friends. The second was an adventure through boreal forests that climaxed with a downhill track that was as safe as it was fantastic and exciting. This is not your run of the mill husky tour. After we returned to the husky homestead, it was our greatest joy to take part in deharnessing the happy huskies. Aksana offered that we may give our husky heros a well deserved massage. It was amazing! There was so much love, my heart smiles even at this memories recollection.

Thank you Husky, Yoga and Nature, for your service to these wonderful creatures, the sustainability of the planet and the Lappish traveler community.

Very pleasent and professional organizers! They even provided us with rubber boots since it rain during the day. Pick up was very punctual. 20 husky live with them and are all very human friendly and it was so great walking with them. They also told us a lot about the Huskys which was nice to hear. We recommend this so much!

I very rarely make recommendations. This time I felt I needed to make an exception.
I participated in a yoga retreat in Northern Lappland organised by Aksana.
The Yoga Nature retreat was all that you could ask for after a though Corona spring. Combining long walks in the wild Lappland, well instructed yoga sessions, delicious food and great company.
Thank you <3

I can’t say enough about Aksana and Antti! This trip exceeded our expectations! They were both so welcoming and supportive on our trip. Their dogs were beautiful and strong. This trip took us into the forest and we felt like real mushers. My daughter and I both got to run our own sled and it was truly a once in a lifetime experience. I highly recommend Aksana and Antti they are both wonderful people.

We took a 10 km dog sled ride. It was just amazing! We were picked up on time from the downtown in Rovaniemi. The dog sled route took place both in the forest and across the lake. The landscapes were beautiful. The dogs - beautiful Siberian huskies - were very friendly, loving and disciplined. We had a lot of time to cuddle them after the ride and to get to know them closer. After the ride we had a delicious lappish snack (pancakes and tea) in Aksana's house. The atmosphere there was very authentic and comfortable. Aksana and her husband- the owners of the husky farm and the guides - were very friendly and caring. They made sure we had a great time. I definitely recommend this adventure! It's worth every penny!!!

Great journey with Antti and Aksana! Only best impressions. We took “Be a musher” trip and enjoyed great time with huskies. Small group allows you to feel the attention of hosts towards you.

Kiitos!

Today we visited Aksana and Antti’s gorgeous home and spent time with them and their Huskies. They took us on a sled ride and my husband and I got to drive. I must admit I was quite nervous at first but Aksana and Antti were so kind in making sure we understood how to handle the sled and Huskies. They also would stop every so often to check on us which I appreciated! They even let my oldest son take a turn at the end of the ride. When we arrived back at their home we were invited to see the dogs in their kennel and spend a little time petting them and loving on them. The dogs were so friendly and loved having my children pet them. You can tell that they are well taken care of and considered a part of Aksana and Antti’s family. We were then welcomed inside to have a hot beverage, pancakes, and gingerbread cookies (which my kids ate all of-sorry :/) with the hosts. It was such a lovely time asking questions and getting to know the culture of their family-I really felt as though I was a family member. It was such a great day and I’m sure it is a memory none of my family will ever forget.

We were collected from our hotel at 9am and had a short drive to Aksani and Antti's house. We talked and met the huskies, before a long and thoroughly enjoyable sled ride with the huskies. We were given clear instructions on how to control the sleds and dogs, before being allowed to 'mush' by ourselves. Aksana and Antti were always close by and kept a close eye on us for safety. My son was even allowed to join me to drive the dogs. Only our family of four was there.
We then had time to play with the dogs and learn all about them, before enjoying a warm drink and pancakes.

The dogs were so happy and well looked after. It never felt commercial or business like. We all had a thoroughly enjoyable time and have unforgettable memories. I highly recommend this activity.

Being able to visit a family owned Husky farm is rare and very special . The care and kindness given to and from all of the dogs is impossible to miss. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us.

The paddle across the arctic lake was peaceful, safe and left us with a feeling of accomplishment!

The reindeer farm visit was like nothing we've experienced before. Seeing the reindeer come running out of the forest was unforgettable along with being able to hand feed the beautiful creatures. Learning about the daily life for the farm gave us all a better understanding of the importance of tradition and more importantly, nature itself.

All in all, a big thank you and we would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area to book an experience with yoganature.fi
