Engholm's Husky is situated next to Karasjohka river, 6 km outside of Karasjok. We provide sled dog tours/expeditions and accommodation in designed hand made log houses that were built by Sven himself and has a special charm. Sven has made all the interior furnishing and decoration in order to create a unique and personal atmosphere in each house. Our farm consists of 50 highly trained sled dogs for long-distance racing and tours/expeditions. The tours are Extraordinary escapes for the unique minded. Designed to be suitable for experienced mushers and for first-timers. We usually use four to six-dog teams, although this is reviewed to suit individual mushers. Engholm Husky tours/expeditions are ideal winter holidays for those who love wild and unspoilt places and adventure. Most participants are rather adventurous people who relish the chance to learn new skills and like to live life to the fullest.

Thanks to his university studies in natural geography, it is a pleasure for him to explain the many geographical and other natural phenomena's while leading a tour. Nature & Kind Factor
I had a longing within me for untouched nature. Based upon my own feelings for the area - the exotic light, the darkness and the great plateau - I developed a product which is now bearing fruit. I built up to what we have today which has, with the years, become the success I had hoped for when I started.
We give unique nature based experiences founded on knowledge and a gentle and sustainable use of the environment and working hard to reduce the environmental footprint. It is important for us to use the environment on it's own terms. We wish to leave as few traces as possible and as far as possible avoid wearing on the environment we enjoy. We cater for smaller groups. A small group leaves fewer traces and allowing for more interaction between the client and the guide. We avoid assistance from snow mobiles. All equipment is on the dog sleds. We have a proven passion for serving local and organic food and using our business to make significant contributions to the local sami community.
