About Revelstoke Dogsled Adventures
Revelstoke Dogsled Adventures has been running guided dogsledding tours through the snow-covered backcountry around Revelstoke, British Columbia since 2009. Their teams of Alaskan Racing Huskies pull guests through quiet forest trails and open meadows in the Columbia Mountains, offering a peaceful alternative to the motorised backcountry tours that dominate the local adventure scene.
Tours depart from the Revelstoke Visitor Information Centre and travel to the mushing trails where guests learn to drive their own dogsled team or ride as a passenger while a guide handles the sled. Multiple tour lengths are available, from introductory half-day outings to longer wilderness experiences. The dogs are well-socialised and eager to run, and guides share the basics of mushing technique, sled dog care, and the history of dogsledding in the Canadian Rockies throughout the trip.
What makes Revelstoke Dogsled Adventures special is the authentic connection between the mushers, their dogs, and the landscape. This is not a theme-park simulation — it is a working kennel operation where the dogs live to run and the guides are passionate about the sport and animal welfare. For families, couples, or anyone looking for a quintessentially Canadian winter experience beyond skiing, dogsledding through the silent, snow-laden forests around Revelstoke is genuinely memorable.
