Activity description

Discover a whole new way of hiking in the Hautes-Pyrénées by trying your hand at hiking with sled dogs in Arreau!

Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, Greenland Dogs and Samoyeds are waiting for you at the Repaire des Huskys in Arreau to take you on an original hike with sled dogs in the beautiful mountain landscapes of the Hautes-Pyrénées! The concept? Equipped with a comfortable belt and a shock-absorbing lanyard, you will set off on a hike with a sled dog, which will be a great help when you are going uphill. Not only will you get to enjoy the fresh air of the Pyrenees, but you will also have the chance to bond with your 4-legged companion!

You can choose between a 30-minute or 1 hour and 15-minute hike with a sled dog in Arreau, on a route selected according to the day's weather and your preferences. Before setting off, your state-qualified guide will take the time to introduce you to the pack so that you can find the ideal canine partner to accompany you. Finally, once the hike is over, you will have the pleasure of spending some time with your dog to reward him for this wonderful outing at the foot of the Néouvielle massif!

A combination of magnificent mountain scenery, a little sporting effort and complicity with adorable Nordic dogs, this discovery of hiking with sled dogs near Saint-Lary-Soulan is sure to leave you with some wonderful memories of the Hautes-Pyrénées! And for even more moments to share with the pack, don't hesitate to book a visit to the kennels afterwards to discover the huskies and learn all about sled dogs!
