Our private dogsledding tour near Mont-Tremblant gives your group of 2-6 participants an exclusive experience on the trails. You’ll have your own guide and dog teams for about 1 hour of dogsledding, plus time for lunch and optional activities. This is a great way to celebrate a special occasion or enjoy dogsledding at your own pace with just your group.

Our Dogsledding Private VIP tour is for groups of 2-6 participants for about 1 hour on the trails. You’ll arrive before 12h00 for hot soup, bread, and beer or wine in our heated yurt. After lunch and a safety briefing, we all take our places on the sleds and you will take off with your dog team pulling at top speed! You’ll head through wooded terrain, open fields and near frozen lakes. It offers a bit of a physical and technical challenge, but is still good for beginners. The private tour includes an optional snowshoe hike on our wooded trails before or after dogsledding, with all equipment provided. You’ll finish with hot chocolate in our heated yurt.
