Alaska Sleddog College: Tour itinerary
Day 1 - 12 / 14: Musher training
During the first week you will participate in the “Nenana Sled Dog College” where you will undergo complete musher training, including:
- Learning about the operational and organisational structure of the kennels.
- Being taught all about the amazing Huskies, including how to care for and train them.
- Comprehensive training on how to use the sled and all associated equipment.
- Learning all of the skills and techniques you need to mush and drive your dog sled team.
- Daily trips out with your dog sled team and a supervisory guide to practice your sled driving with.
- A variety of longer day trips
Explore the wilderness of northern Alaska with your fantastic and loyal sled dog team. The second week of your course is flexible, allowing you to choose trails of different lengths or ability based on your preferences and confidence. From demanding extensive longer trails to shorter day trips staying closer to base, your guides and supervisors will be happy to support you.
Accommodation is in double or single rooms in our cosy lodge which has hot/cold running water, proper toilets, and showers for your comfort. Our remote location means that internet connection is via dial-up and very slow. The nearest internet cafe is located in Fairbanks.
Other activities: weekends will be spent at leisure where you will have the opportunity to explore Nenana and Fairbanks, including museums, restaurants, and pubs. Alternatively, you may choose to spend your time relaxing at the lodge.
Note: This husky sledding tour operates in small groups of around 4 mushers. Whilst suitable for a wide range of ages, the minimum age of participation is 14 and these guests must be supervised by parents/another responsible adult.
