Epic sled dog experience! Greg made it fun and informational. Love to see the happy healthy dogs and enjoyed racing along in the sled.
This is an interactive activity, but is your family friendly, slower, shorter version of your dog sledding adventure. We prefer to have people stand on the runners and drive the dogs, with us on a tag sled as guide throughout the experience. Kids 6 years and up may be able to drive the dog team. Children under 6 years will ride in the sled with an adult. Sitting in the Sled will be accommodated as needed, especially for children and seniors, or anyone nervous about the process. This is also a great option if you've never been around dogs and are keen to learn and say hello to your very friendly working sled dogs.
Departure Point

There may be longer waiting times between sled runs, where you will be welcome to use our warming cabin, play games, help with dog chores, and plenty of dog cuddles to occupy yourselves while your group takes turns mushing.
- Weight Limit is 300 pounds per adult, contact for options.
- People need to be able to stand or sit in the sled, and talking with us before booking about limitations is crucial.

What a wonderful experience! Lovely meeting the dogs (and the mushers!). We had such a great time - cannot recommend this experience enough. It was -25 but there was a cozy cabin and extra clothes available to us. So great to learn about this interesting part of Alaska.

Extremely fun experience, tour guides where thoughtful, very friendly, and just enjoyable to be around, made our sledding experience 100 times more better. They made sure we were comfortable in our experience offering warmer more suitable gear as well as toe warmers and hand warmers. Dogs where amazing very friendly extremely energetic and overall veryy entertaining. Guide responded quickly when we gave him a call for some questions and guided us to the right derection. 100/10 would reccomend and 100% would do again.
