Guided Dog Sledding in Alaska
Dog sledding runs deep in Alaska’s history. It’s an activity that is hard to find in other states, making dog sledding in Alaska a truly unique experience. Rather than a necessity, dog sledding in Alaska is more of a hobby, or sport these days. Dog sled races are still a strong part of Yukon and Alaska’s culture. The pinnacle of dog sled racing is Alaska’s Iditarod where racers from all over the world compete to race from Palmer/Wasilla to Nome a 1,000 mile journey.
Alaska dog sled guides offer tours of various experiences, from short loop runs in the brush, to lengthy journeys across the tundra, or even small expeditions on top of glaciers. Because dog sledding requires snow you won’t find any dog sledding outfitters south of Juneau in SE Alaska, or out in the Aleutian Islands.
