I loved reading this account. I did husky mushing in 2019. My friend talked me into it and I’m so glad. I was nervous but it was so exciting! We did go off the track into deep snow one time and my foot slid off the runners too but I managed to hold onto the reins and got back up. I’m going back to Tromso in a few months and would love to do it again but I have injured both of my feet and have osteoporosis so common sense tells me I was fortunate to do it once.

In reply to Alexandra. I'm glad it's not just me then 😅 The smell really was something. Not surprising I guess when you have a hundred dogs living and doing their business in the same area.

I did dog sledding with my sister when we stopped off in Tromsø whilst cruising on the Hurtigruten. It was a great experience, but I’d say the only thing that caught me off guard was the smell. You get used to it eventually and it didn’t really negate the experience, but it was just like coming off a plane into a hot country. Definitely up for doing it again! Glad you gave it go a Daniel 🙂
