Why it's on Icebreaker
Dogsledding Iceland
Dogsledding Iceland runs all year from a moving camp near Mosfellsbær, about 35 minutes from Reykjavík; the exact spot is set up to two days ahead in summer, or the evening before in winter. On snow it is a sled, otherwise a wheeled kart, and either way a musher drives while up to five of you ride. When the Grapevine went, the dogs were making a racket before anyone had parked, turned out to be soft touches up close, and ran faster than expected. One firm rule: do not eye up a second dog while petting the first, because the jealous one will pee on your leg. The ride is 30 minutes of a 90-minute visit, with a halfway stop for photos and belly rubs. Wear extra socks; bring goggles.
From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.
