Dogsledding Photos from Jokkmokk, Arctic Sweden, Swedish Lapland - Travel Photography by Lola Akinmade Åkerström

While visiting the 406-year old Sámi market in Jokkmokk, I got to tag along with Matti & Stina and their 38 Siberian huskies across frozen Lake Skabram…Check out the full dogsledding gallery on Matador Network.

[Note - Photos from this set were also shortlisted for the 2011 Travel Photographer of the Year (TPOTY) "Spirit of Adventure" awards].

    Beautiful! I’ve only ever been dogsledding once and that was up in Svalbard, but in the middle of the summer so the sled was on wheels and there was no snow!
