Summer Dog Sled Adventure in Willow Alaska
Overview
Dog sledding is one of Alaska’s most unforgettable experiences, and you don’t need snow to enjoy it. Available from May through October, this interactive 2-hour summer dog sledding tour takes you into the heart of Alaska’s mushing country for an authentic look at life with a sled dog team.
When you arrive, you’ll be welcomed by your friendly retired dogs before learning about the history and traditions of dog sledding in Alaska. You’ll then visit the kennel to meet the full team, interact with the dogs, and even learn how to harness them if you’d like. Once the team is ready, you’ll head out on a thrilling ride through forest trails and rolling hills, where you’ll see firsthand the strength, teamwork, and excitement of these incredible dogs. There’s plenty of time for photos, and the dogs always enjoy extra attention after the run.
This tour is family-friendly and suitable for all ages. Rain gear is provided, and lunch is available for purchase after the tour with advance notice.

What To Expect
No snow? No problem! Dog sledding in Alaska is a bucket-list item for many visitors, and the lack of snow doesn’t stop your Alaskan huskies or dog tours. As a tour operator in the summer months, we offer dog tours and mushers with your 8-passenger cart pulled by your team of Alaskan huskies through the woods and over the hills. On a clear day, your trail offers a variety of views of Denali. On your dog sled trip, of course, there is always plenty of time to play with the pups on your kennel tours. Conveniently based near Anchorage experience Alaskan dog sleds without the cold.
