Husky Sledding in Canada

Husky sledding in Canada’s Yukon Territory takes you to the final frontier and into the heart of the great northern wilderness. Here you will lead a team of huskies through spectacular landscapes across frozen rivers, through thick forests and over vast and never ending tundra. We follow historical routes once used during the exploration of this unique part of the world and in later years for transporting gold during the gold rush. We stay overnight in remote wilderness cabins. 

Our dog sledding options in Canada range in duration depending on your requirements, whilst all offering an authentic glimpse into the heart of Canada’s Yukon. Each sledding journey shows you the unique beauty and solitude of the Yukon, with its breathtaking vistas, abundant wildlife, and the serene stillness of the Canadian Northwest.

Our expert guides ensure a safe and enriching sledding experience, sharing insights about the local ecology and sled techniques.
