If you'd like to share a moment with a sled dog, come and equip yourself with a lanyard and a belt to share a sporting moment with a canine companion trained for this activity. Accompanied by an enthusiastic and qualified guide.

Description

Are you familiar with dog sledding in winter? The concept is simple. Equipped with an elastic lanyard attached to the dog's harness, you set off on an accompanied hike with a sled dog. An ideal way to discover the musher's activity, our group of Alaskan huskies and others. An opportunity to learn more about them! You'll appreciate the strong relationship that develops with the dog during the ride, during which sharing and complicity with your companion will be essential. Don't worry, the sporting level is not very intense, as the dog will adapt his rhythm to the human. What's more, he'll be a great help when the going gets tough, and he'll make walking more fun for children.
It's a very popular activity with children, who can cuddle and caress the dog during the outing. However, younger children (aged 7 to 10 inclusive, and weighing less than 30-35kg) should be accompanied by an older child or an adult.
