Fall Dog Sled Adventure in Willow Alaska
Overview
Autumn is one of the most peaceful and scenic times to experience Alaska. As the leaves turn vibrant shades of gold and red and the temperatures begin to cool, the landscape transforms into a stunning fall setting. Even better, the mosquitoes of summer have mostly disappeared, making it an ideal time to enjoy the outdoors.
Fall is also when mushers begin preparing their dog teams for the winter season and legendary races like the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race — the iconic thousand-mile race across Alaska. During this time, the dogs are eager to train and build endurance for the snowy months ahead.
This tour includes all the highlights of your winter dog sled experience, giving you plenty of opportunities to interact with the dogs, take photos, and enjoy a scenic ride with the team. It’s a unique way to experience Alaska’s autumn beauty while getting an authentic look into the world of dog mushing.

This unique pre-season adventure offers a behind-the-scenes look at how mushers and sled dogs prepare for winter racing.
