Dog Sledding

A dog sled (or dogsled) is a sled pulled by one or more dogs used to travel over ice and through snow. Numerous types of sleds are used, depending on their function. Take a look at our full range of Dog Sledding Holidays

A basket sled has a bed raised a several inches above the surface of the snow. This type of sled is used in racing. Sprint sleds are often short-bodied basket sleds. A toboggan sled has a lower carriage and uses a closed bed, allowing the sled to slide or float over deep snow. Freight sleds, which are heavier and sturdier than sprint sleds, may be toboggan or basket sleds. Both of these types of sleds have runners which stick out behind the sled, on which the musher can stand. Modern sleds usually include drag or claw brakes built into the sled, whereas older ones relied on hooks attached to the sled with a rope.
