Make the most of your Ski Holiday in Jasper with a Jasper Dog Sled Tour!
This tour begins with a 1.25 hour journey along the historic Yellowhead highway to the Small River rest area west of Valemount, BC. Your experienced guide will teach you how to use the sled and work with the dogs.
You will then have the opportunity to drive your own team of sled dogs past snow-covered trees, waterfalls, open meadows and abundant wildlife. For those not wanting to drive, simply snuggle in the sled and soak up the incredible scenery. Enjoy a native-style campfire lunch alongside a mountain stream!
The Jasper Dog Sled Tour includes a native-style campfire lunch and hotel pick up and drop off. The tours depart from Jasper daily in the morning and afternoon. Leave about 5 to 6 hours for a round trip. The price is CDN$215 for an adult and CDN$145 for a child aged 5 to 12 years.
Bookings can be made through the Ski Holiday company, rocky-peak Ski Holidays.

Dog Sledding in the Canadian Rockies!
Banff dog sled tours , Lake Louise dog sled tours , Canmore dog sled tours and Panorama dog sled tours are a must for all dog lovers!
The dogs are passionate about what they do! On the longer tours you can give it a try yourself – make sure you have the anchor ready just in case you need to stop! Guides will assist you to give you a helping hand and you can just sit back and relax in your sleigh as you speed through the winter wonderland. Be sure to take your camera as these dogs like to have their photo taken!
Banff dog sled tours , Lake Louise dog sled tours , Canmore dog sled tours and Panorama dog sled tours have been timed so that you don’t have to take a full day off skiing or you can add another tour such as snowmobiling to maximise your precious ski holiday time in one place. Now there are increased transfers from Banff, Canmore, Lake Louise and for 2008, dog sled tours out of Panorama, getting to the dogs has never been easier this winter 2008 ski season!
The best way to book is to contact rocky-peak Holidays direct and they will take care of everything.
