The guide teaches you what you need to know! However, it is important if the participants have some experience in outdoor activities. It is necessary that all participants are in good physical health conditions.
On uphill parts of the journey, it is necessary to take frequent breaks, as well as to help the dogs up the hill.
We spend the nights in igloo or tent in good sleeping bags on reindeer hides, while the dogs keep looking out for polar bears.
