How We Are Different
GROUP SIZE
Maximum number of guests per tours is 10 (plus kids) We offer a small, exclusive venue where you often feel like you’re the only person in a vast wilderness. Escape the crowds and experience the quiet beauty of travel by dog team.
GUIDES
Our guides have years of combined experience, both on the tour and the race trail and we have plenty of information to share and dog sledding stories to tell. With the uninterrupted attention of your private guide, you’ll have all your questions answered and some you didn’t know to ask! And with all this experience, we have a flawless safety record.
DOGS
All our dogs are Alaskan huskies, which are some of the most astounding athletes on the planet. Our four- legged family are enthusiastic, turbo charged crazies whose mission is to” get’on down the trail”! We mushers must work to slow them down!
DOG CARE
Our dog care is simply unparalleled. Each dog in the kennel is a treasured individual and member of our family . We work tirelessly to ensure their emotional and physical needs are met.
Travel by dog team is part of Canada’s heritage and you now have an opportunity to partake in this authentic Canadian experience.

Our Other Dog Sled Tours
The Only Dogsledding Tours in Banff National Park!
A very well organized dog sledding tour company who take incredible care of their dogs. Having experienced all 3 dog sledding companies around Canmore and Banff, this one is by far the best as far as views and a true dog sledding experience goes.

Highlight of our trip! My wife and I took our two daughters dog sledding. It was an incredible experience. Megan and Catherine -- our guides -- were friendly and knowledgeable. Experiencing such an important part of Canadian heritage opened our eyes to life before cars and snowmobiles.

AWESOME!!! FULL OF AWESOMENESS!! A tried and true dog lover celebrating her 60th for a week in the Canadian Rockies. The dog sled tour with @Kingmik was the highlight of the week! Megan, the owner and our guide, is a super human who cares incredibly for each of her 46 working dogs and 9 retirees. Every dog has their own personality and it comes out when they are mushing. I have a fondness for all of them but Polaris and I had a special bond. If you want to enjoy a special treat in a stunning setting and have a memory that lasts a lifetime - go dog sledding with Kingmik!

This is by far the most amazing thing I have done. I have traveled to many places, seen many unique places, but this dogsledding experience is at the top of my list. If you love dogs, love the beauty of nature, then you MUST put this on your to-do list. In April, we stayed at Chateau Lake Louise. The pick-up spot is 2 minutes from the Chateau. Our 1.5 hour tour was not only informative, but fun! Once the dogs knew the mushers were getting ready, they barked and barked. These dogs are bred for this, it's in their blood, and makes them beyond happy. It is definitely worth the ticket price, I wouldn't hesitate to do it again in the future. Thank you Kingmik for such an amazing experience!

If only we could give them 10,000 stars! This was a fantastic experience for the whole family!! We learned a lot about the trail, mountains and glacier in addition to about all 65+ dogs. This was “the best day ever,” according to my daughter!!! We did the Great Divide Tour… absolutely fantastic!!!

A wonderful experience. As a dog owner, I was very impressed with how healthy and well trained the dogs were. The guides were very happy to tell us all about their selection processes, care of their dogs, and adoption process when they retire. It was clear the dogs were very happy and well loved. The tour itself was picturesque and very enjoyable. Worth the price, for sure.

Our family of four went dog sledding with Guide’s, Jared and Rob over spring break and this was the highlight of our trip! The guys were incredibly friendly and informative along with the entire tour. They even let our children try mushing. We were very pleased with how friendly the guides and pups were. I would definitely go again!

This was one of the most memorable winter activities EVER! (And we actually came for 10 days of skiing ;-) Interaction w/ the dogs, musher, the entire dog sledding tour. Epic! 5 star experience of the Canadian Winter Wonder Land. Would give it 10 stars, if possible. Go for the 1 ½ hour tour. Time will fly, worth every penny and then some.

It's hard to know what to mention first! The amazing personalities of the dogs? (even in the span of a couple hours you start to see their uniqueness - it's hard not to fall in love! :) ) The infectious passion of the guides? (Megan was awesome, and shared with us her love for the dogs, the land, and her sport) The beautiful scenery? (what better way to take in the mountains and forest in true Canadian winter) We left feeling inspired, and with smiles on our faces all day! For us it was an amazing "once-in-a-lifetime" experience, but we may just have to go back again ;) THANK YOU Megan & Kingmik & Lily (our team leader)

OMG! This was by far the best event of the week! The dogs are amazing and well trained. We were so impressed by the guides and how well they took care of the dogs. And not only did they take such good care of them, but they knew each and every one of their personalities. ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! And I fell in love with one of the dogs that were up for adoption. We get to pick him up in April. So excited! And our guide Kylie was super awesome!

Search no farther, it's time to book your dog sledding tour with Kingmik. My wife and I recently visited Lake Louise three weekends ago (right before COVID-19 started) to have an adventurous weekends in the Canadian Rockies. Needless to say we were blown away by the adventure, skiing, and scenery!
