About the activity

As the autumn air turns crisp and the Yukon landscape transforms into a tapestry of gold and crimson, the energy at the kennel becomes electric. The Alaskan huskies, sensing the change in season, are eager to return to the trails after the summer break.

This dryland cart ride in Whitehorse offers a rare opportunity to witness the power and discipline of a professional sled dog team before the first snow falls. Guided by an experienced long-distance musher from the Yukon Wide Adventures team, you will discover the unique bond between human and dog in the heart of the vast wilderness surrounding the Takhini River.

The experience begins with a hands-on introduction to the world of mushing. You will be invited to help harness the big teams, feeling the strength of the dogs as they lean into their gear. Once the safety briefing is complete, your professional musher will navigate the winding trails, sharing educational insights into dog care and the history of sledding in the North. Keep your eyes peeled, as the area is home to local wildlife that occasionally appears along the forest edges. After returning to the base and un-harnessing the team, the tour concludes with a relaxing story time accompanied by hot drinks and light refreshments. It is the ideal moment to ask final questions and enjoy the calm of the Yukon bush.

This excursion accessible to everyone, from infants to seniors, with no physical effort required. To ensure a personalized and intimate atmosphere, groups are strictly limited to 5 participants per guide. The carts are robust and designed for safety on dry land, providing a stable yet thrilling way to experience the speed of the dogs. Whether you are a solo traveler or a family, the small-group format allows for direct interaction with both the musher and the dogs, making it a perfect initiation for those curious about the life of a Yukon musher.
