Greenland Dog Adventure

Amazing activity for the whole family and for anybody who loves dogs and wants to learn more about sled dogs. We will give you a brief introduction to life with the sled dogs and their history. You can even cuddle with the dogs and take photos with them. When the dogs have puppies, you can get up close and personal and cuddle with these adorable sweethearts.

Help save the Greenland Dog

The Greenland sled dog is a unique breed, with unique characteristics. It is the most enduring dog in the world, and it is the most closely related dog with the primeval wolf and the reason why humans have been able to populate the Arctic. The population of Greenland sled dogs has halved in the last 20 years. Today there are under 14.000 Greenland Sled Dogs in the world.

Through our conservation program at Greenland Dog Adventure, we work to preserve the Greenland sled dog. This is done through tourism and school services to make local children experts in their own history and culture. When you visit our center, you make a positive difference and help us preserve the Greenlandic sled dog.

On the visit to the dog sled team, you get a brief introduction to life as a sled dog, their history and for those who feel like it, there is of course plenty of time to pet and cuddle the interested sled dogs
