  • 5Dog Sledding in Yellowknife

    Had a wonderful day dogsledding in Yellowknife. Kelly picked us up from our hotel and took us to the venue. She was very friendly and welcomed our questions. Went for a dog sled ride that was so much fun and then enjoyed hot chocolate with her homemade Bannick. Beautiful and interesting way to spend the afternoon.

  • 5Dog’s Life in Yellowknife

    We had a wonderful time sledding around Kam Lake. The dogs were very friendly, well behaved and eager to pull the sled. The log warm up cabin was very inviting. We enjoyed having bannock and warm drinks inside while listening to Winter’s father’s trapping and hunting stories. The whole adventure was very relaxing.

  • 5Super fun

    I saw a dogsled demo in Alaska, but here you can actually ride in the sled and it’s really fun! Not a real long ride, but long enough, and I recommend a good had and sunglasses. We are dog lovers and dog owners and can say that it is totally humane and they take good care of their dogs.

  • 5Good experience.

    This involved a 20 minutes sled ride, watching the harnessing, but little interaction with the dogs. We were able to cuddle some puppies, though.

About Yellowknife

Yellowknife, capital of Canada's Northwest Territories, sits on the shore of Great Slave Lake and is known for its gold-mining past and northern lights.

Yellowknife grew in the 1930s after gold was found on the north shore of Great Slave Lake, and it became the territorial capital in 1967. Old Town, on a rocky peninsula, holds floatplane docks, houseboats moored in the bay and weathered log buildings. The Bush Pilot's Monument on the Rock looks across the water, and the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre tells the story of the territory's Indigenous peoples.
