Sled Dog Ride & Scenic Drive from Anchorage

This guided adventure begins with pickup in downtown Anchorage, then winds through Chugach State Park, Palmer, and Willow, traversing scenic valleys and forested corridors along the way. Your journey leads to a working sled dog kennel, where you’ll meet the mushers and husky teams, learn about dog care, harness setup, and sled preparation.

In snow-season, you’ll ride in a sled; in summer or low-snow conditions, the ride is done via musher-driven wheeled carts. The dog team carries you over trails through forest, tundra edges, or gentle slopes, while your guide narrates stories about Iditarod history, kennel life, and survival in Alaska’s frontier.

Time is built in to interact with the dogs - petting, walking, and photography - before returning by scenic drive to Anchorage. The tour is designed as a half-day experience, ideal for those wanting to balance adventure, nature, and driving through Alaska’s backcountry.
