Description

Mush! This Tremblant dog sledding experience near Mont- Tremblant starts at the kennel. Before hitting the trail, with the help of your guide, you will harness the huskies, learn your dogs’ names, and receive some simple instructions on how to drive a team. You can also participate as a passenger.

1 driver and 1 passenger per sled. Passengers and drivers can switch throughout the excursion. Children ride with the guide.

The Tremblant forest dogsledding tour includes a stop in a warm cabin with hot chocolate and cookies. We are on the trail for about 1 hour.

Upon return, you can visit the kennel and pet the dogs and the puppies (seasonal). A light lunch is served at our restaurant style lodge before your departure. You can take this time to talk with the guides and learn more about the world of dogsledding.

FAQ

When Should I reserve?

This is a very popular activity. Reservations for weekends, Christmas vacations, and anytime from mid-february to the last week of March should be made 1 or 2 weeks in advance. For any other time, reservations should be made a few days in advance.

How should we be dressed?

Consult our What to wear information page.

How many people can go on one sled?

We usually configure 2 adults per sled (one driver, one passenger) Children under 90lbs go with the guides for safety reasons. Configuration also depends on the weather and snow conditions. Depending on the excursion we can sometimes arrange 2 adults and 1 child on one sled.

Is it hard on the dogs?

These dogs are working dogs who are bred to pull and run in a cold environment. They are trained and fed properly to be able to do it well. They like pulling a sled as much as a retriever likes fetching a stick. This will become obvious just before the ride starts. Feel free to ask your guide anything you want about sled dogs… learning about the dogs is an interesting part of the experience.

Do we drive our own sled?

Yes, each participant over 90lbs will have a chance to drive the sled. The reason for the weight restriction is to be able to apply enough pressure when needed on the brake to stop the dogs from moving forward.

Will we get to visit the kennel?

Yes you will visit the kennel as well as the puppies (seasonal).

Is it hard?

This activity can be strenuous for drivers. As a driver you are part of the team, so when the climbs are steep the driver will to get off and walk, jog or even help push the sled.

Comments: We are a family of 4 with two kids and one of my children were forced to ride with two strangers completely out of sight of my family while the three of us were together. They child had a horrible time and the rest of us felt horrible that we had to try to enjoy this amazing and very expensive family experience without one of my children. I asked the operator why my one child had to be split from all of us and I was ignored multiple times. I have amazing pictures of this experience with one of my children missing . For this reason I would not recommend this to families.

Client selected: This activity was OK, but I wouldn't do it again.

Management Response:

Thank you of taking the time to give us your comments (below) about dogsledding .

We are sorry you were disappointed that your family was split up. Unfortunately all on our dogsledding activities we cannot have 4 people on the same sled due to the space and maximum weight a dog team can pull. Also, on this tour, children always ride with a guide for safety reasons(guides almost never wipe out). Guides are always the first sled(to lead the way), and last sled (to make sure no on e gets left behind).

We do try to avoid any disappointments by providing a good explanation of the way it works on our website and in our reservation confirmation that sleds and positions will be assigned on arrival by our guides.

Comments: Less people holding up the sledding and no kids *(constant screaming) option would've been nice. Also wish we weren't pushed to have a guide on our sled it was unnecessary and took away from our enjoyment of experience because he was overly talkative. We were constantly told it would be challenging for us being 2 women on the sled alone I think this is very discouraging and honestly we would've fine without a guide on our sled. If we could do it all over again we would not have listened to the coordinators regarding having a guide on our sled.

Comments: Our guide Matt was professional, funny, and very knowledgeable. All of the other guides at the kennel were also extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It was so great to learn about the dogs, their history and see how they live. The forest was absolutely beautiful when we went as it was snowing lightly and the trees were covered. All in all it was more than we expected!
