Dog Sledding

Overview

This tour is an authentic Northern experience for the more adventurous, featuring a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to mush a team of dogs on a two-hour ride! There is a Wildlife Preserve in the area, and you will also have the opportunity to go snowshoeing and snowmobiling. Complete your day at the lake with ice fishing and bison smokies by the bonfire before viewing the Northern Lights directly from your accommodation (weather dependent). All meals and cozy winter clothing are included.

Itinerary

Please note that the itinerary is subject to change due to unforeseen (weather) conditions. The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and we cannot guarantee that you will see them. We will ensure that your trip remains a bucket list experience, even if you are not fortunate enough to see the Aurora Borealis!
