Perfect for a personalised experience with a musher dedicated to your group, this private dog sledding excursion near Mont-Tremblant is an ideal way to discover the Rivière-Rouge trails in 2 different ways: on snowshoes and then by dog sled. While the snowshoe hike lets you enjoy the scenery at your own pace, the dogsled excursion offers more speed and thrills!
Your activity begins when you arrive at the kennel in the morning. Depending on your preferences, you can arrive at any time and set off on your own to explore the Rivière-Rouge area on snowshoes. On your return to the kennel, a meal around the fire will be waiting for you to give you strength for the 2nd part of the day. As this snowshoe hike is optional, you can start the activity with lunch if you wish.
After enjoying a hot soup, you'll meet up with your musher guide for a private dogsledding experience in the heart of the Laurentians. The guide will take all the time you need to answer your questions, introduce you to his job and much more! As you'll see on site, the Huskys at Aventure Quatre Saisons are real athletes, and they take rest days on Mondays and Tuesdays so they can welcome you in top form on the other days!
Once you've met the dogs, it's time to listen to the safety instructions and get on the sleds. Of course, the musher will provide you with all the information you need to know to drive the sled and make the most of your private dogsled ride near Mont-Tremblant.
During the excursion, you'll discover the sublime scenery of the snow-covered forest and a picturesque lake as you become increasingly familiar with driving the sled. After half an hour's ride, you'll take a break to change drivers and enjoy the Laurentian scenery.
After discovering the sensations of dog sledding in Rivière-Rouge, you'll enjoy a quieter moment to stroke the dogs. Once again, you'll have time to chat with the musher and ask any questions you may have. Finally, you'll settle into the welcome yurt with a hot chocolate to see the photos of your activity taken by a professional photographer.
Book now and don't miss this chance to enjoy a 100% personalised experience during this dog sledding excursion near Mont-Tremblant with snowshoeing in the Laurentians!
