A must-do if in...

Daniel_B, Mar 2025

A must-do if in Fairbanks. Lisbet and her team are EXCEPTIONAL. She ensured each member of our group was educated and confident before hitting the trails. The mushing experience was beautiful, relaxing and invigorating. I could not recommend more highly!

So much fun with the dogs!

Gina_A, Mar 2025

The dogs were very energetic and excited to go out on the trail. The owner, Lisbet, and her assistant, Nicole were very warm and professional. They showed you how to drive the sled and how to handle the dogs. Then when you drove your own sled, they guided you in their sleds so you knew which trails to take and when to apply the brakes etc. The dog kennel is off the beaten path, so if you are not comfortable driving a very steep hill that's snow packed, I would hire a driver to get there. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience.
