As you can imagine, dog sledding in Alaska is an iconic activity. While we get some reservations up to a year in advance, typically if you book 1-2 months ahead of time then you should be okay. Obvious exceptions to this are any major holidays and the weeks surrounding the start of the Iditarod (early March). The slowest period of the winter is mid-January to mid-February, all other times will generally get booked out.

If the day you want to go dog sledding is fully booked, please email us at mushingschool@gmail.com or call at 907-531-5990 if you would like to be on the waitlist.

If you are driving yourself from Anchorage, you will head north on the Parks Hwy towards Wasilla. Make sure to stay left at the fork towards Wasilla/Palmer! From there, you drive through Wasilla and continue north toward Willow and Talkeetna. The night dog sledding ride is located at a professional racing kennel situated about 1h45min north of downtown Anchorage or 45min south of Talkeetna. Specific point-by-point driving directions will be emailed to you upon booking.
