A truly Canadian Experience
Experience the treasured Canadian Wilderness in timeless style with an iconic Dogsled Tour. You’ll step into our comfortable sleds filled with complimentary blankets to keep you warm during your ride. Enjoy the ride, the comradery and the scenery as you are taken along a forested trail, with a stop for photos at our look out point. Want to try your hand at mushing? Sure! Our guides will teach you basic commands and signals as you learn how to handle a sled. Finish your tour in bliss with a hot apple cider and delicious cookie at our authentic Yurt.
Please note there is a weight limit of 350 pounds. A small child can ride with 2 adults if the sled is under the total weight limit.
For the love of dogs!
Get the inside scoop and learn all about our furry dogsled family. Meet and greet the pack, learn about dog sledding and experience the care we give to our dogs. This tour includes an introduction to dogsled history and equipment as well as the energy around our pack. You will learn about the positions on a team and search for the characteristics that indicate where a member of the team may excel. Along with meeting a few of our pack, you will learn about the lineage and what gives them such a unique appearance compared to the “Hollywood Husky”… Continue the tour with a walk through the kennel as you see the care that goes into living arrangements, our feeding plan and hear stories about each dog as you are introduced to different litters. Our tour will provide an opportunity for family photos and ample time for you to ‘find a favourite’ so you can stay connected year-round.
Our sleds have the capacity to fit 2 adults and 1 small child. Please be aware that there is a $99 CAD charge for adding a small child to a sled. There is also a weight limit of 350 lbs for the sleds, so please be aware of this restriction when booking your tour.
