This photo was taken on December 28, 2024. Last winter reminded us once again that winters here in Oulu are impossible to predict nowadays.

For this reason, we are unfortunately unable to accept reservations for husky safaris before January 10, 2026, and even then, we will only open them for booking at a later date.

However, visits to the kennel during Christmas can be upgraded to HuskySpin IF we get enough snow and frost.

Päivitys 24.2.2025:
Talvikausi 2024-2025 on (tai oli...) äärimmäisen hankala lumiolosuhteiden vuoksi ja nyt näyttää siltä, ​​että kevät on jo täällä... ainakin kuukautta aikaisemmin kuin normaalisti.

Jos ihmettä ei tapahdu, huskyajelut ovat taas saatavilla talvikaudella 2025-2026.

Sad news from the woods. If the weather forecast for the next 9 days is correct, then we will not be able to open the trail for the next 9 days.

At the moment it is raining and the snow cover is getting thinner all the time.

You can still book an appointment to meet our social ja lovely pack via our website.

Let's hope for lower temperatures and lots of new snow!

FAQ: "How do huskies relate to children?"

We found this old photo as an answer to our pack's behavior with children. The photo shows our now 11-year-old daughter, who has spent a lot of time in the kennel with us, alone, and with her friends! This other girl in this photo is our pack leader Kukka. In addition, our huskies meet completely strange children all the time and there have been no problems whatsoever so far.

FAQ: "Why siperian huskies?"

We have quite long history with dogs, also with other breeds and in other dog sports than sledding. And siberian huskies just are best!

They don't have desire to please their own people. They do things if they want.

They are really talkative! No sound needed, only gestures and expressions. It is task for human to understand these facial expressions....

FAQ: "They all look so alike! Do you remember everyone's names"

Yes! Everyone looks like themselves and you can recognize them even by their voice. We have tiny pack, only 21 huskies, and 19 of them have born here so we have seen them first time in age of couple of seconds and we have seen them grow.

This dude here is Einstein. Very special in every way and one of them that you can get to know during kennel visits.

Our location on a promontory that stretches out to the sea causes some challenges sometimes. This promontory is quite big, but still. On autumn weather is really foggy quite often. Also our autumns are warmer than autums are in some parts of Oulu. We have less rains than in eastern parts of Oulu and on winters this means less snow.

Still this tiny village called Varjakka with all it's nature and history is the best place to live.
