History
Mr. Robert Janns came to Umnäs in 1870 as a colonist
with his spade and dug hopes in this new land in Lapland.
It was harsh times settling down as a farmer with only
a small family breeding cows, sheep, goats and hens.
Since that time a lot has happened. 'The Silent Way'
has hosted five generations of the same family, all
of whom has maintained strong roots and traditions.
Catrine Anderback, your hostess is the grand grand grand
daughter of Robert.
Now days, our beloved and hardworking Alaskan Huskies
are what keeps 'The Silent Way' alive and our days full
of excitement and adventures.
Why choose The Silent
Way?
All the nature you can imagine... dense forests... proud
mountain birch... wide stretched mires... bare white
mountains with deep valleys... pure clean lakes with
trout’s and char and beautiful social dogs...
O n our tours you’ll mush a team of our friendly
Huskies along beautiful wilderness trails. We travel
from lodge to lodge which means you will enjoy new scenery
every day. Each evening you’ll enjoy a new cosy
wilderness lodges with great Lapland meals. You’ll
be accompanied by our expert guides who provide complete
dogsled training, share stories and tales about the
winter mushing, fishing, wildlife, northern lights,
and more. Our sledges are hand made at ”The Silent
Way” by Kenneth, your leadmusher, who knows what
is the best to use on our mountain tours. Our experience
is beneficial on any tours. Dogs at The Silent Way are
very sociable and kind. They love to be patted almost
as much as they like you to put on their harness and
pull you wherever you wish... may that be challenging
stormy weather... through cold winter days... while
northern light dance for you... warm and beautiful sunny
days when the mountain is kind.
Small and large groups or customised individual tour...
If you like we tailor to suit your requirements. On
our mountains tours we work with small groups, that
means more dogs for your team and more personal service.
We offer complete free clothing and boots. You can be
sure you’ll stay warm. We’re the experts
on cold weather comfort.
