Our Dogsledding in the Upper Laurentians is located 50 minutes from Tremblant resort in the Laurentian forest. This is for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone looking to experience mushing with Nordic dogs.
We offer several dog sledding activities in the area, see our Dogsled Comparison Table.
Our Dogsledding – Upper Laurentians takes place in the Laurentien forest north of Mont-Tremblant, where you’ll ride on trails through the mountains and wilderness. The experience rides from December through March, depending on snow conditions.
When you arrive, our guides will greet you and provide a safety briefing. Then you’ll head out for a 1-hour ride on the trails. We adapt the route based on the group – we have trails with varied terrain and others that are more relaxed. Depending on weather conditions, you might ride near a lake or pass through areas where beavers live. We guarantee one guide per sled at all times, and our guides will share information about the surrounding wilderness during your ride.
If you want to ride together as a family, choose one of our “family” options to ensure you’re on the same sled.
After your ride, you’ll visit our kennel where you can meet more of our Nordic dogs. You can warm up by the campfire and try crazy carpeting on our toboggan slopes.
The experience requires moderate physical effort. You’ll be sitting as a passenger or standing on the runners as a driver, and you’ll need to help steer and brake the sled. Dogsledding is a sport, so participants will be active during the ride.

Our dogsledding is for beginners to intermediate participants. You don’t need any previous experience with dogsledding. It requires moderate physical effort for drivers who will be active during the ride, helping to steer and brake the sled. Drivers need to be comfortable standing on the runners and leaning into turns. Passengers will sit in the sled under a blanket.

We usually configure 2 adults per sled (one driver, one passenger). Children between 3 and 11 years old go with the guides for safety reasons. Configuration also depends on the weather and snow conditions.
These dogs are working dogs who are bred to pull and run in a cold environment. They are trained and fed properly to be able to do it well. They like pulling a sled as much as a retriever likes fetching a stick. This will become obvious just before the ride starts. Feel free to ask your guide anything you want about sled dogs… learning about the dogs is an interesting part of the experience.
Yes, participants that are 14 years old and over and a minimum of 90lbs will have a chance to drive the sled, depending on the conditions.
Yes, at the end of the ride, you get to pet and reward them.
This activity can be strenuous for drivers. As a driver you are part of the team, so when the climbs are steep the driver will have to get off and walk, jog or even help push the sled.
