What To Expect
What Alaskan trip would be complete without mushing? Join us in Fairbanks, Alaska, to hop in a sled and join one of our mushers on an exciting training run with our champion Alaskan Huskies. Experience snow-covered forests, vast open snow fields, and even sledding on a frozen river! Learn why there’s no better way to experience the Last Frontier than on a dog sled.
Once you arrive at our winter tour office, you will meet our experienced dog mushing guides and learn all about the Alaskan Husky and what dog mushing is all about. Then you will get in the sled with our huskies and your guide for a 2-mile ride in a beautiful winter wonderland.
Notes: Please dress warmly for your tour. Prepare to be outside in unpredictable weather for your dog sled ride. Required gear: a warm jacket, hat, scarf, mittens, snow pants (recommended), and warm footwear. We have additional winter gear for our guests to use as needed.
