The place called “FLARKEN” gave its name to our sled dog company. It is our base camp in Swedish Lapland. Fabien and Laura live there year-round with their dogs, as well as Chouette and Bandit, their two cats. Here, everything revolves around the pack. The office has a panoramic view of the kennel, allowing us to watch the dogs play and move around, as well as to spot any potential issues. It is also here, at the base camp, that we built our new log cabin. It houses the changing room and all the cold-weather gear, a cozy reception area, and a sauna for you to relax in after activities.

The kennel
Our sled dogs live two by two in 50 m² enclosures. They also have access to an additional approximately 5,000 m² park to romp around in.
They are fed a rich and balanced diet consisting of chicken meat, salmon, and kibble of varying quality depending on whether they are active or not. To make meal preparation easier and to maintain hygiene standards, the team has a dog kitchen located near the kennel.
The equipement area
FLARKEN is also the place where we welcome you to start your stay in Swedish Lapland.
All trips begin with a stop at the changing room, where we have enough gear to outfit a regiment of alpine hunters. Dozens of pairs of boots, fur hats, mittens, heavy-duty parkas… everything you need is there!
The sauna
Like all our nature camps, our base in Swedish Lapland has a sauna that you can enjoy every evening after activities. Made entirely of logs, it is brand new. The sauna is an institution in Nordic countries, and you can read about this ancient practice here.
