Description

Dog sledding is a sport. Participants will be active during the ride.

Mush! On this Tremblant dog sledding experience near Mont- Tremblant you will meet at the reception where you can warm up next to the fireplace before heading to the kennel where our eager dog will be awaiting your arrival.

Then, 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.

Our guides will decide positions on the sleds. (If you have a particular position request please make it known to our guide when you arrive). There will be one driver and one or two passengers per sled. Adults will usually, but not always, drive their own dog sled with an adult passenger. Passengers and drivers can switch places half way through the excursion. Children may be required to ride as passengers on the guides’ sleds or ride on parents sled.

The Tremblant forest dogsledding tour takes you over hilly forest trails and 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.

Safety, ethics, and animal health information for our operation: Read about our operating standards and Code of ethics.

We offer several dog sledding activities in the area, see our Dogsled Comparison Table.

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 is this dogsledding activity different from the ohers ?

See our Dogsled Comparison Table.

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: This trip was absolutely perfect! The staff was fantastic, the experience was amazing and the facilities were great. We absolutely loved it, and the dogsledding actually became the highlight of our winter snow vacation. My husband and brother-in-law were very skeptical of doing the activity at first and both couldn’t stop smiling the whole time and even said it was one of the best things they had ever done. My two young sons (5 and 8) had an absolute blast and I loved the whole thing. We absolutely could not think of one way to change or improve the experience and recommended it to everyone we have spoken to since doing it. Absolutely brilliant!

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.

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: Our experience was AMAZING!! The operator was professional, courteous, informative, and the dogs looked very happy and well cared for. Everything was clean and in good repair. The activity itself was so much fun, and we felt well supported with help and guidance. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had, and I definitely plan to be back! I am already recommending it to my friends and family.

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.
