What can you expect?
Would you like to ride along as a guest on a sled dog training course in the training cart or even drive a team of sled dogs yourself?
Then come and visit us and we will take you on a fast ride in our training cart.
You can experience us up close and see how much fun we have on the road in a team.
When it starts to get cooler in August, preparations for the winter begin.
You will prepare the dog team, take our huskies on a team ride and then unhitch the dogs from the training cart and look after them.
What is the program schedule?
Getting to know the sled dog team
You will get to know our huskies and learn how a sled dog team is structured and which dog runs in which position. You will also learn a lot about the special features of huskies and sled dogs.
Preparing the Huskies for the team ride
After you have been given some theoretical knowledge, we prepare the dogs for the team drive and harness them to the pulling line. By now you will notice how the dogs are getting more and more excited and can hardly wait to get started. Then it's time to hurry before the dogs get too restless and everything has to happen quickly.
Go! We're going on tour with the team
You can take a seat in the comfortable seat of the training cart and we set off on a short training ride with the dogs.

Drink break for the dogs
After a few kilometers, we take a drink break for the dogs. This is important, as it is still relatively warm for the dogs in the fall, even if the thermometer shows maybe 5°C. It is important that the dogs get enough water. You are welcome to help and pour water into each dog's bowl.
Rider change
If you wish, you also have the option of driving the sled dog team yourself. Mario then sits in the passenger seat and you stand at the back of the sled and steer the dogs. Don't worry, Mario will support you.
What requirements do I need to meet?
Minimum age for participation: 7 years
In order to take part in a training ride with the training trolley, children must be at least 7 years old and be able to sit independently and calmly on the seat. Younger children can sit on the lap of an adult.
Physical requirements
You sit very comfortably in the training cart, similar to an armchair. You should be able to get in and out independently. As the space in the training cart is very limited, it can be a little tight for very tall people, but if you can bend your legs well, it should be doable.
A maximum body weight of approx. 100 kg
The upper weight limit is approx. 100 kg per person so as not to overburden our dogs. If the weight is higher, please contact us.
No fear of the dogs
You will come into direct contact with our sled dogs, who may even jump on you.
What clothing is needed?
Wear appropriate clothing for the weather
Wear comfortable and warm clothing even in the cooler fall months.
If it rains, a good rain jacket and preferably rain trousers are very helpful. This will keep you dry and it's great fun to be out and about with the huskies even in rainy weather.
We recommend good hiking, trekking or trail running shoes.
Even if it's not that cold yet, it's good to have gloves with you. For one thing, it can get quite chilly on the training cart in the forest and for another, your hands will stay clean if it is very muddy and you come into contact with the dogs.
We recommend the following clothing:
Long hiking pants
Hiking boots or good sports shoes
Headgear
Rain jacket
A change of clothes in case you get wet or dirty
Backpack
Long-sleeved shirt
Gloves
