You will sled over 240km across Sweden through untouched nature, and celebrate your achievements at the world famous Ice Hotel! The challenge begins in Kiruna, where you'll make your way to the Husky Lodge for dinner, a challenge briefing and most importantly to meet your four-legged friends who will be your closest companions for the duration of the challenge!

This is no ordinary charity challenge, you will be required to erect your own tents, cook for yourselves and fulfil all camping duties with the equipment provided. You'll also be responsible for looking after your teams of huskies – be assured, this is a true, “hands on” wilderness challenge!

What's the difference between a sponsorship place and a self funded place?

add remove

For a sponsorship place, the participant pays the registration fee directly to the event organisers and then commits to raise a minimum fundraising pledge for the MND Association, of which a certain amount needs to be with us by a specific date as we will then be invoiced for the cost of your challenge by the event organisers. Then the remaining pledge needs to be with us by four weeks after the event.
 
For a self-funded place, the participant pays the registration fee directly to the event organisers and then raises as much as they can in sponsorship for the MND Association and the MND Association incurs no costs for the place.

Can I take part if i'm under 18?

add remove

The minimum age for this trek is 18 years old (if you are aged between 14 – 17 years you must be accompanied by a parent or guardian).

I'm no longer able to take part in the event, what shall I do?
