    The dog sleigh ride was great! We were only 3 guests, so we were on the road with 3 sleds, a guest drove along with the musher on the sleigh and the other two guests each had their own sleigh. We received a brief but sufficient instruction into running a dog sled. The beginning, however, was a bit chaotic, the Huskies wanted to get rid of it, waited impatiently for the starting shot and got tangled up again and again in their arrogance. In addition, a cow of a sledge has also been broken off. But within a very short time a spare sled was brought and it could go off. Full of joy, the well-trained Huskies ran off and after a brief acclimatization it ran too. It went through a beautiful snow landscape, halfway was made a short rest with warm tea and homemade muffins and then it went back to the starting point. It is a great experience to take such a tour in this beautiful landscape and I can only recommend this to everyone!! The Huskies are in good shape, gorgeous, very fond and enjoy running. The musher is very nice and you can see that he does the tour with pleasure,
