What you can expect

Enjoy in the middle of nature the sensation of forming a perfect man-dog pairing.

They will pick you up at the hotel where you are staying to go to the Tierra Mayor Valley, where the Musher Instructor will welcome you by giving you an introductory talk to the world of sleigh dogs and you will visit the Hisky Park Ushuaia. You will be instructed in driving a sleigh, in the techniques of assembly and handling of it.

The experience begins once the dogs are attached to the sleigh with their harnesses and the adventure begins with the cry of “Go”. It is a unique, intense and at the same time very fun trip.

The tour culminates at the Haro refuge, where you can replace calories with a delicious snack (hot chocolate with a slice of cake).

After resting, mushers and dogs, the journey continues, crossing forests, frozen rivers and experiencing the magical white silence.
