Availability is not live and may change, so please reach out to our Guest Services Team for the most up-to-date availability. During the Christmas and New Year period, availability is very limited.

This tour begins with a short 15-20 min ride from the Whistler Village, arriving at our dogsled base in the Callaghan Valley. Our guests will be given a brief history of 'mushing', and will learn some basic commands as well as instructions on how to handle a dogsled. Guests will then meet their musher and team of dogs, before being whisked away on an unforgettable winter experience.

Sit back and relax, take in the views and awe of Whistler's incredible backcountry...or give mushing a try for yourself! The tour will finish up at our gorgeous yurt with a hot apple cider and our famous chocolate chip cookies.
