Dog Sledding

This is your chance! Get a glimpse of a truly northern pastime. Learn about the lives of sled dogs and their musher and see these dogs in action when they pull you on a fast and thrilling summertime ride.

We'll pick you up in town and as you head out of Skagway, your guide will acquaint you with both it's Gold Rush history and present day community. Then relax for a 9-mile seaside drive to the northern most point Lynn Canal, the Klondike Gold Rush National Park and our Mushing Camp. At the kennels, you will meet the dogs and climb onto our wheeled sled--custom made for running during the snow-less summer months. Our husky team will whisk you along a wooded trail through some of Southeast Alaska's beautiful Temperate Rainforest. Spruce and hemlock trees, 12" thick spagma moss, glacially-fed waterfalls and views of the Taiya Inlet Tidal Flats surround you on this unique ride.

Then, have refreshments and cuddle with some adorable husky puppies. Before heading back to town, you'll wander through the musher's camp with your guide and learn about the equipment, hard work, and great husky strength that goes into the life of dog sledding in the wild rugged North!
