Description
Enjoy miles of Alaskan wilderness while you slide through the snow on a dog sled during this sledding trip in Fairbanks. Meet the Alaskan, cuddle with the pups, and chat with the mushers.
Glide over the snow on a sled that’s being pulled by a team of dogs—many of whom have won the Iditarod, Yukon Quest, or other races.
You’ll spend the first 15 minutes gearing up in the provided warm clothing. Then you’ll have about 20 minutes to meet the dogs, cuddle the puppies, and chat with the mushers — usually locals who are actively training for races. This will give you a real sense of what their training regimens are like and a chance to absorb their passion for the sport.
Then it’s off to the races! You will hop onto one sled — all of which were custom-made by one of the mushers. For the next 20–25 minutes, the team of 6-8 excited dogs will pull you along a couple miles of gorgeous Alaskan wilderness as you feel the wind on your face and the excitement of dog sledding (you could be riding up to 14 miles depending on the weather).
