Come and visit to discover our superb sleds, perfectly
designed just for your needs.
Our range of touring and expedition pulkas offers a wide
selection from light models designed for short trips
in the Jura or in the Prealps to bigger, reinforced models
for expeditions in the Nordic countries. With one of our
children pulkas, your little
one(s), like you, can

of winter
sports
in
complete warmth and safety - and together as a family.
Organising baby-sitting is no longer a prerequisite for
skiing: "All aboard for the
ski tracks !". Enjoying sun and snow, breathing
fresh air, and all the while gliding
safely through the wild landscapes of the Jura – this
dream becomes reality with
Nordic Family.
What is a pulka ?
Originally from Norway, our pulkas are
small sleds designed for transporting passengers (children pulkas, pulkas for disabled, rescue pulkas) or equipment
(touring pulkas, expedition pulkas).
The children pulka is the most popular
application with the touring models. Our children pulkas
fit to the size and needs of children aged 6 months and
over. Their
aerodynamic
shape,
together
with
semi-rigid
shafts
for towing, make them perfectly adapted equipment for cross
country skiing – classic or skating – as
well as for hiking or walking with snow shoes.
Our products
are designed to provide maximum comfort and safety,
and for this reason they have long
been recognised in the Nordic countries as the best
in their class.
Depending on the model, one or two children
can fit in a pulka, sitting or lying as their age and mood
require.
Muffled up in their sleeping bag, they will better enjoy
their trip in
the fresh air. The indispensable visor protects them from
wind, rain and snowfall, from snow sprayed by the skier
and, most importantly, from the sun.
Every
seat in our pulkas is equipped with a safety belt. Two
roll-over guards on the sides,
and the two runners beneath the sled, ensure minimal friction
and perfect stability on snow, even at a sustained pace.
These sleds are made from the lightest and strongest of
modern materials, and so can be pulled easily by a male
or female skier. They are part of everyday life for our
Scandinavian friends: why not for you ?
