==========================

- 1.38 km long
- Difficulty: easy
- Condition: very easy

The half-hour walk leads from the rear part of the village of Muotathal along the Muota and some springs to the Husky Lodge. About 30 sled dogs live there and can be visited. With the forests and the few houses, the landscape is reminiscent of Canada.
