Enjoy your Yukon Dog Sledding with our amazing dogs and take your family and friends for a ride of their lifetime.

Experience some of the most beautiful wilderness scenery while dog sledding in the Yukon.

Get a glimpse into the world of dog sledding, also called mushing. Undoubtedly the most excitement you will ever experience, seeing and hearing our dogs as they are getting ready to work. 
Feel the excitement and power while standing on the runners or riding in the basket of the dog sled.

During the early season our tours will be on beautiful and exciting trails taking you through boreal forest. Once the river ice is safe and has a sufficient snow cover our tours will be on the scenic Takhini River. 

All of our half day tours are two guests per sled. One guest will be driving the sled and another guest will be riding the basket. There certainly will be the option to take turns.
Please keep in mind that dog sledding is a physical activity, comparable to cross country skiing.

This trip can be customized for special occasions and family outings, or modified to accommodate special needs depending on availability.

Single sleds available for a surcharge. Please inquire ahead of booking.
