Glacier Helicopter Dogsledding
Drive your sled-dog team on real snow in the middle of summer while surrounded by amazing scenery! Start this adventure with a spectacular helicopter ride over glaciers and icebergs. Land on a huge snow field high on a glacier and enjoy a whole hour with Alaskan sled dogs and their mushers that live here all summer long. Take the dog team for an exhilarating dogsled ride through real snow.
The length of this tour makes it perfect for the whole family, and we often see three generations having fun together. After your dogsled tour, meet the canine athletes that pulled your sled, listen to stories about running sled dog races over 1,000 miles long, and meet the puppies (and, of course, take pictures with your favorite dogs).
