Experience the real Yukon and lifestyle with the dogs during one of the most spectacular times of the year, on this 3-day guided tour. Fall is the time when the days are still warm and long to enjoy lots of outdoor time and the nights are dark to have a chance to see the Northern Lights dancing in the sky. Learn about our life with over hundred Huskies and be part of the fall training with the dogs. Take in all the amazing fall colors while canoeing on the Takhini River and enjoy some wildlife at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve. Meals are all home cooked in the lodge and you will feel like family. Maximum group size is 8.

After a hearty and healthy breakfast you will learn what it takes to work with sled dogs, and get a chance to harness up some dogs. You will experience the incredible enthusiasm of the yard all ready to go once they see the harnesses. They just can't wait to go to work and the whole yard is cheering them on. Once our team of up to 12 dogs is hooked up to the ATV and we leave the yard there will be silence. Everybody is focused on their job. Depending on the temperatures we will be spending 30 to 45 min on the trail. Back in the yard you are encouraged to help feed and water the dogs and give them all a big thank you cuddle. After the ride we will take a group of our retired dogs for a walk to the shores of the Takhini river. This gives you more time with the dogs and also a chance to see what all our dogs get to do during their summer break. All morning in the fresh air will have you hungry for lunch time.
