Review

Intro

Explore the snow-covered mountains in a way like no other, while learning about the incredible dogs that power your ride. You have several options when it comes to dog sledding, in the Park City area.

What Makes It Great

Riding in a dog sled is a fun way to travel, plus you’ll learn all about this unique activity and the incredible dogs.

Located just 15 minutes from downtown Park City, All Seasons Adventures features rides through the meadows of the Wasatch and Uinta Mountain Ranges. The team of huskies will pull you along, and you’ll learn about the handling and care of the dogs. These dogs love to run, and it’s a thrill to be part of the team. The experience is great for families with children ages three and older.

The dog-sled teams are led by mushers Maren and Racer Gibson, who have been rescuing sled dogs from local animal shelters for more than 12 years. They are the founders of Arctic Breed Rescue, an animal rescue group based in Utah. Maren and Racer started mushing as a way to exercise their dogs, and many of the dog’s on their team have been adopted from local animal shelters. The dogs are treated as pets first and foremost.

Most people start with a one-hour experience, which is a good exposure to dog sledding. The dogs run on quiet, scenic trails created on private land. The sleds hold up to 350 pounds, and families can be divided into groups for multiple rides. Transportation is also available to and from Park City for those without a car.

The family-owned Luna Lobos also offer dog sledding just 15 minutes east of Park City. It features an experienced team of dogs that include both Iditarod veterans and rescue dogs, and the trip will take you on the trails at the Racho Luna Lobos.
