  • Companies offer excursions of one hour, two hours, half days or more.
  • Guides provide information about the dogs and natural environment as you glide through the snow.

Overview

For a memorable adventure on your winter vacation in Steamboat Springs, enjoy the white valleys and rugged mountains at the speed of a dog. Taking a nice, peaceful trip on a dog sled is the perfect way to spend a day during your ski trip. 

You can appreciate the beauty and kindness of tail wagging, eager-to-please Siberian or Alaskan Huskies as you enjoy the supervised, hands-on experience of mushing through the vast expanses of white winter wonderland. 

Remember to bring your camera and lots of appreciative patting for your new pals!

Where to go Dog Sledding

On sleds pulled by a happy, healthy dog team, you can stay warm under the blankets as the sled glides along the banks of the scenic Yampa River, the Stagecoach Reservoir, or the snowy hills and valleys of private ranches.
