Awards and major coverage

The World Responsible Tourism Awards 2015 awarded Hetta Huskies GOLD for 'Best Animal Welfare Initiative'. The Telegraph Magazine featured us and the challenges in the life of one of our trainee guides in a five-page Christmas special spread in December 2013, and gave us the cover shot. A 2019 CNN article on responsible mushing draws on many quotes from our farm (most accurately reported).

More press

Helsingin Sanomat, Finland's largest broadsheet, considers us the place to try mushing. We have a Lapland.fi interview, and our client John Connolly has written several articles about us in the Australian press. Visit Finland promoted us as one of the top Finnish winter sports locations. A travel magazine ran three articles arguing that age should never limit adventure, particularly when mushing holds the keys to the vast wilderness. TripAdvisor profiles the farm with the highest possible rating and ranks us the number 1 attraction in the area.
