ABOUT THIS REGION  DOGSLEDDING

Spend a week dogsledding in the Yukon

For a truly unique winter adventure, try dogsledding. Your dependable dog team will glide along the forested trails and frozen lakes in this winter wonderland north of Whitehorse. Your dogsledding guides will introduce you to your own dog team and offer instruction on handling the sled. If you prefer, you can ride along as a passenger. Your week will include several day trips from the lodge and an extended overnight expedition along the Yukon Quest Trail. The mushing lifestyle must be experienced in the true northern wilderness of the Yukon where tradition and the land are timeless.

You will appreciate your guide's experience, their commitment to their dogs and their respect for the environment. It is more than just their business, it's their lifestyle and they invite you to experience it for yourself.
