This tour is a fantastic activity for the entire family and anyone passionate about dogs or curious to learn more about sled dogs.

If there are puppies, you can get up close and personal to cuddle with these adorable little ones.

The Greenland sled dog is a unique breed with extraordinary characteristics. Known as the most enduring dog in the world, it is the closest living relative to the primeval wolf and a key reason humans have been able to inhabit the Arctic. However, the population of Greenland sled dogs has halved in the past 20 years, and today there are fewer than 14,000 Greenland sled dogs left globally. By visiting our center, you make a positive impact and help preserve this remarkable breed.

Please note: When interacting with Greenland sled dogs, always respect their boundaries and follow your guide’s instructions.

The Greenland Dog Visit is part of the Greenland Dog Adventure Tours and the preservation program.
