Eräkeskus - Aittokoski - Ruunaa
Because the Ruunaa Area is so beautiful...
Our week-offer with the most dog-intense program: 6 days dogsledding on different trails. At the beginning we make a warm-up-day to get back the feeling for runners and snow. Then we drive up north to the Aittokoski for an overnight-trip. And right after that, we drive to the Ruunaa-area for 2 nights and explore the trails there with rapids, lakes, rivers and the famous hanging bridges. 1 night in the forest house Aittokoski, 2 nights in the comfortable cottage in Ruunaa and 4 nights at Eräkeskus.
Why Eräkeskus?
- small groups with maximum 4 participants
- technically demanding trails only for experienceds mushers
- almost no scooter-traffic in North Carelia
- minimum number of participants: 2
Difficulty level „Eräkeskus 4“
For the Ruunaa Trail we look for physically fit persons, with a strong mind to complete the distances also in posssibly bad conditions, those who keep themselves fit during the whole year and those who have already finished an overnight-tour with sleddogs. The day-distances can physically be compared with 2 hours jogging or 5 hours hiking with heavy backbag in the Alps. Of course teamspirit, love of nature and dogs and a happy mind are very useful as well!
