Since ancient times people living in the distant lands, where
the winter is longer than other seasons, have been using the
dog sled to the transport of people and the load. The dog
sled has been also used to the exploring of the unknown polar
worlds and to reaching of both Poles.
The organizers of Šediváčkův long will take part in the exhibition.
They were offered an exhibition space and the possibility
to introduce the dog sled, which has always been inseparably
connected with the polar worlds, at the exhibition opening
