Asgård Wilderness Farm: Dog sledding in the Norwegian wilderness

Imagine the thrill of driving your own dog sled through a scenic, snowy winter landscape. Thanks to the happy dogs and experienced guides at Åsgård Wilderness Farm in Engerdal, this dream can come true.

Åsgård Wilderness Farm is run by Olivia and Sjur, a couple whose lives are deeply intertwined with their passion for nature, wildlife, and cultural heritage. Located in Engerdal in northeast Norway, the farm is surrounded by great wilderness with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities and adventures – such as dog sledding.

Guests can choose from a variety of tours, from one hour up to seven days. Regardless of tour, you can expect an exhilarating adventure. “Together with our dedicated dogs and passionate guides, we want to create unforgettable moments in nature,” says Olivia.

The sleds are pulled by Alaskan huskies, known for their love of running and being out in the cold. “This is their natural habitat. Guests are often impressed by how well-behaved and friendly the dogs are, and that we look after them so well,” says Olivia. “We put great emphasis on both animal welfare and customer experiences, to ensure a positive and responsible dog sledding experience. For us, the dogs are not working animals, they’re part of the family.”

Dog sledding activities are available all year. Olivia and Sjur also organise snowshoeing and ice fishing, as well as canoeing in summer. Guests can even visit the kennel – with 35 eager Alaskan huskies! And for those who want to stay the night, the couple has a guest house and a treetop cabin, with a view of the mountains.
