Is it hard on the dogs?
These dogs are canine athletes who are bred to pull and run in a cold environment. They are trained and fed properly to be able to do it well. They like pulling a sled as much as a retriever likes fetching a stick. This will become obvious just before the ride starts. Feel free to ask your guide anything you want about sled dogs… learning about the dogs is an interesting part of the experience.
Is it hard?
This activity can be strenuous for drivers. As a driver you are part of the team, so when the climbs are steep the driver will have to get off and walk, jog or even help push the sled.
Highlights
More information
Little adventurers will love driving their own dog sled! Our experienced guides will teach your child about sled dogs, how to harness them and guide his or her team of 1 or 2 dogs, on snowy trails. Meanwhile, parents can enjoy a dogsled ride, admiring the winter scenery of the Upper Laurentians.
Depending on the child's ability, he or she can follow their parents on the trail. It's a fun and educational activity for the whole family!
At the end of your dogsled ride, you'll have the chance to visit our kennel and warm up by a campfire.
