What you can expect

  • Visit to the Taimyr dog kennel – A unique experience in Europe

    Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of the Siberian Far North on a guided visit of the Primitif Aventure kennel, the only place in Europe dedicated to Taimyr dogs. This immersive experience invites you to discover a rare and ancestral breed, still unknown to the general public, closely linked to the history and traditions of the Arctic peoples.

    Accompanied by a passionate live guide, you will explore the kennel and enjoy a special encounter with these exceptional dogs. Renowned for their endurance, intelligence, and remarkable adaptation to the extreme conditions of northern Siberia, Taimyr dogs have accompanied indigenous peoples for centuries in their travels, daily activities, and traditional way of life.

    During the tour, your live guide will tell you about the breed's origin, its history, its physical and behavioural characteristics, and its cultural role within Arctic communities. You will discover how these dogs have been selected over time to survive in one of the most demanding environments on the planet and why they are now an exceptional living heritage.

    The tour also allows you to observe the dogs up close in their daily environment. You will be able to better understand their behaviour, their way of life, their training, and the relationship of trust they develop with humans. This special moment offers a unique opportunity to interact with enthusiasts who work to preserve and promote this rare breed.

    Much more than a simple animal tour, this experience is a true cultural immersion in the history of the Far North. It will appeal to dog lovers as well as the curious in search of authentic discoveries and extraordinary encounters.

    Come and experience a warm, enriching, and unique moment in Europe, meeting the remarkable Taimyr dogs and learning about the traditions that surround them.
