This is an interactive activity, but is your family friendly, slower, shorter version of your dog sledding adventure. We prefer to have people stand on the runners and drive the dogs, with us on a tag sled as guide throughout the experience. Kids 6 years and up may be able to drive the dog team. Children under 6 years will ride in the sled with an adult. Sitting in the Sled will be accommodated as needed, especially for children and seniors, or anyone nervous about the process. This is also a great option if you've never been around dogs and are keen to learn and say hello to your very friendly working sled dogs.

From: $0.00

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for participating in the sledding experience?

A: Yes, the age limit is that kids must be at least 6 years old to drive the dog team. However, children under 6 can ride in the sled with an adult. They’ll be totally accommodated, especially if they’re nervous. The staff is really friendly and great with kids!

Q: What should we wear for this sledding adventure in Fairbanks?

A: Dress in layers! It gets really cold, even if you’re in the Arctic oven tent for breaks. Make sure to wear warm socks, gloves, and a hat. They do provide extra winter gear if you need it, which is a nice touch. Just be ready for some fun in the snow!

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of our sledding experience?

A: If the weather isn't safe for sledding, the team usually offers options to reschedule. It’s important to check in before you go, as they’ll let you know about any cancellations. They care about safety, so you should be good.

Thinking about the Sledding and Homesteading Adventure for my kids!

I’m considering giving this experience as a gift for my kids (ages 8 and 5). The idea of them driving the dog team is so exciting! Has anyone done it? I’m curious about the dogs and if they’re really friendly like it says. Also, how long does the experience usually last? Any tips?

Sledding Adventure in Fairbanks - Is it worth it?

I got this as a gift and OMG, it was amazing! The Arctic oven tent was a lifesaver for warming up. Plus, the hot cocoa was a nice touch after being outside. Who else loved the dog interactions? I want to go again!
