About

Come explore a beautiful Alaskan forest with some of our traditional working Alaskan Huskies.

We will hike about 2 miles from our homestead into a boreal forest and meander through a grove of birch and aspen overlooking the Goldstream Valley.

Your guide will point out the types of trees, plants and animal tracks. You might see moose, fox, birds and other small mammals indigenous to Alaska.

For this activity you will be fitted with a harness that is used for skijoring with dogs, so that you can be in fully immersed in walking one of our sled dogs.

You will need to be physically able to walk or hike approximately 2 miles with minimal elevation gain, and be comfortable around dogs for this activity.

Kids under 12 years of age and those less physically capable can follow along with your party and the guide without actually handling a dog.

The sunset time slot at 6:30pm has an option of adding on a barbecue once back at the homestead. Please inquire if you are interested in adding that option.

Add-Ons Available

For our Husky Hike Tour, PLEASE wear appropriate footwear!

Closed Toe shoes including rain boots, lace up hiking boots, or winter snow boots all work.

Please do NOT wear sandals or any open toed or mesh shoes.

Your feet will get stepped on by the dogs, and inevitably, dog poop happens.

We do our very best to keep the dogs and dog yard free of poop, but Dogs are Dogs.

Expect mud, poop, and snow at any given time.
