Dog Sledding
In dog sledding, people and dogs work as a team as they sled through the snow. In the past, the Inuit, indigenous peoples inhabiting the Arctic regions, used dog sledding as a means of transportation and has also been used by adventurers on polar expeditions. Dog sledding has become so popular that it is expected to become an official event in the Winter Olympics in the near future. Sledding through the snowfields is exhilarating, and provides you with a different sensation from that of skiing or snowboarding. Dog sledding is also safe for young children who are always accompanied by instructors. Rusutsu’s special dog sledding course ensures unimpeded views of the surrounding landscape. After receiving a lesson in dog-sled operation, you can handle the dog-sled just like a Musher (operator) in a race. We look forward to welcoming your family to the world of dog sledding.
