goHusky is a small Icelandic family owned company that offers all year around husky tours.
Our adventure started when we had our first Alaskan husky called Aska. We, Gunnar and María, own 21 dogs today and we do all kinds of fun activities with our dogs, Dogsledding, Bikejoring, Canicross and some of the dogs are show dogs as well.
goHusky offers various dog sledding experience with huskies in Akureyri area. You can choose between Dog sledding, Hiking with husky and Husky Petting, private or in a group, what ever suits you best.
In the winter we offer Dog Sledding Tours on snow, right from our doorstep in our home in Glæsibær in North Iceland, in the countryside and surrounding area. We love to take our guests on dogsledding tours in these beautiful landscape.
All year around we offer visit to our home to meet the huskies and have a wonderful time with our lovely dogs. You can take endless pictures while visiting and get a lot of husky kisses.
We also offer hiking with husky, where guests have a waist harness and a pulling dog in front and it is amazing to find the power of the dogs and see how they work with their nature.
EXCELLENT Based on 103 reviews Posted on Jane Best experience - thankyou to the lovely couple and their beautiful dogs Had the absolute best experience meeting Gunnar, Maria and all their beautiful huskies! Loveliest couple who welcomed us into their home, were so kind and shared their stories of the huskies upbringing, how they compete and how they are looked after. It was a privilege to meet the dogs - so well behaved! and also their friendly owners.A fond memory from our Iceland trip - would recommend for any dog lovers :)Posted on Jo A Wonderful Husky Experience. We had an amazing time with 30 gorgeous huskies who were very excited to see us - rushing through the gate with howls of delight!It was a privilege to be invited into the home of Gunnar and Maria who are a very friendly and welcoming couple.Gunnar told us all about how GoHusky was formed and all about their daily lives with the huskies adding their individual names and personalities.The huskies were incredibly well behaved and loved being fussed and having photos taken.We hope to return in the not too distant future to try one of the other activities, maybe sledding.Thank you to Gunnar, Maria and the 30 beautiful huskies for a wonderful unique experience which was a highlight of our holiday to Akureyri .Posted on Cat C A genuine experience of love and fun with gentle huskies. I would give this experience 5 stars plus, plus, if I could.From the moment that Gunnar picked me up from my hotel and drove me through the stunning countryside to his home, and the home of his huskies, I knew this would be a memorable experience - and it was!From the avalanche of affection and kisses from the huskies on my arrival, to meeting Maria his wife, to hearing Gunnar's life stories, this experience is entirely different to what is usually available to the traveller.The huskies are loved, and treated as family, the lifestyle here is probably tough at times, but this family have created a family business that is genuine, fun, and will be remembered as the peak of my holiday. If I ever visit Akureyri with my grandchildren this experience will be top of our list. Thank you Gunnar and Maria - and huskies xxPosted on Antonie H Amazing people. Amazing dogs. Amazing and lovely people that can talk for hours about their dogs. Dogs are super fun to be around and are super cute. If you are in Akureyri DO NOT SKIP THIS.Posted on Sue H A TEN STAR REVIEW!!! Gunni and Maria, both most delightful, welcomed us into their home sharing their love and enthusiasm for all things husky. We had plenty of time for petting and cuddling before our hike and my daughter and I would go back in a heartbeat if Akureyri wasn’t so far from Chicago.The best is all their huskies live in the house with Gunni and Maria, not in a kennel and are all very happy, healthy, extremely friendly and well trained.Posted on Pam L A truly awesome experience I had the best day walking the huskies along a picturesque track. Gunni and Maria were very hospitable back at their husky farm. The dogs loved having us around and patting them. Great for adults and families.Posted on Elke B A great morning with the Huskies We had booked a huskie hike with Gunni and Maria. Due to a knee injury with me, we agreed with Gunni to simply stay with the dogs and to forgo the hike. We were picked up by Gunni at the port and welcomed in Gunni's house by Maria and the dogs. At Gunni the dogs are family members, all 26 dogs live in the house and also take up the most space for themselves. We learned a lot about the dogs and his buisiness from Gummi and had a lot of fun with the dogs, who all picked up a proper petting session. Gunni and Maria have a great relationship with the dogs and bring a lot of love for all your dogs. Should we ever come back to Akureyri, we will certainly book again with Gunni, but this time the hike.Posted on Gary K A great option for dog lovers It was so fun meeting all the Huskies and seeing all their excitement when new people came around or even when the other dogs were playing with each other. They were so funny all wanting attention and competing for attention and wanting pets. The hike itself was great! I loved taking an easy stroll through the forest with some excited huskies! They were so excited and friendly. Definitely glad I found this as an option. And Gunnar and Maria were great to talk to while there. And Gunnar gave us a lot of good info about Iceland while walking with himPosted on Jim F You’ll never walk alone, with goHusky A fantastic experience with 28 Huskies!Gunni and Mara were the perfect hosts, very friendly and welcoming to their home and beautiful dogs. If you love dogs, this is the activity for you. I could have happily spent the whole day here.Posted on cabbie61 Brilliant Absolutely brilliant! If you like dogs this is the trip for you! Amazing to have so many well behaved dogs in one place and around you. The hike with them was a great experience and one we will not forget! Definitely recommend!!
