Summer Dog Sled Adventure in Willow Alaska

This adventure with the dogs was amazing. The dogs were the experience of a lifetime. They were friendly and well behaved. The ones that went on tour were right on with signals. The whole place was dog friendly and soo much fun. Lunch was a bonus. Do not miss this place when in and around Anchorage. Not too much people at tour. Staff was amazing and full of information and were great with the dogs.
Another wonderful visit! We were here 2 years ago and had family coming up on a cruise this year (we're visiting in our RV) and they wanted to meet the dogs and experience the adventure. We had so much fun last time we went again! Katie is an excellent handler and guide. She explained in detail how the dogs are raised and work, the intricacies of dogsled racing and caring for her team. Extremely informative and fun at the same time. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!
We had a FANTASTIC morning with Snowhook. We learned about the sport/ Iditarod, and had plenty of time to love on the dogs and take all kinds of pictures before and after our ride. It was just our family of 5, the guide and the dogs during the ride, which lasted a good amount of time and was lots of fun! Then more time for hugs and pets with our four legged friends before heading out. Well worth the money and one of our favorite experiences of the two week trip to Alaska!
