Dog Sledding

Long before the invention of the snowmobile, First Nations people were getting around by dog sledding. Later on, European explorers quickly adopted it because it was the most efficient means of transportation on a snow-covered surface. These days, the tradition of mushing continues, whether for pleasure or for races such as the famous Yukon Quest. This winter, experience a most magical and extraordinary adventure with dog sleds. Let huskies, malamutes and other large, playful pooches take you for a ride through the kilometers of wild and snowy trails of Lanaudière-Mauricie in a silence punctuated by a few barks.

Dog sledding reconciles us with nature and creates an unmatched bond between us and the animals. Once we’ve set off, there’s no stopping us. To the sound of the steeds’ panting, we thread our way through the snow-covered landscapes of Authentic Quebec. You can play the role of dog leader for a few hours or a few days, with overnight stays in a tipi, cottage, or otherwise.

In a warm atmosphere, share the passion for dogsledding of our entrepreneurs where respect and well-being of the pack are non-negotiable. These canine athletes will surprise you. Certainly, the most fun winter activity that easily brings out the child in everyone. Laughter guaranteed!
