 ARLEIGH JORGENSON SLED DOG ADVENTURES


RIDES
Our Sled Dog Adventures began in 1988 with 10-minute rides from Lutsen Village, now the Caribou Highlands Courtyard.  You will leave directly from our kennel and ride our beautiful and extensive trail system. You'll be driven by an experienced musher with a team of 10-12 Alaskan Huskies, tucked inside cushioned sled bags with sleeping bags for a comfortable and cozy ride. 
   The dogs love our trails and so will you. 
just 40 minutes from Lutsen... 


Kadunce River Ride:  We will either turn inland for a wonderfully scenic run through the forest and meadows of the upper Kadunce, or we will descend toward Lake Superior and a view of a Kadunce River waterfall, just above the park.    2 hours.

$130 per adult - $75 per child (12 and under)

Lake Superior Vista or Maple Wood Ride:  As above, we will choose the best route for the day.  The views of Lake Superior are spectacular, as you can imagine, but the sun can leave these south sloping trails without enough cover.  Our maple wood trail features tight conifer canopies and beaver ponds.  The dogs love this trail and usually run quickly around it.  1 hour. 

$100 per adult - $55 per child (12 and under)


Maximum per sled is 2 adults or 3 children.  Adult/child combos are good.  We like total weights per sled to be less than 350 lbs., although we are flexible, if you are.  The less the weight, the faster and more comfortable the ride.  Rides can begin anytime between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p. m..
Mush
Mushing Day Trips - You Mush!
Lutsen skiers, X-country skiers, and Snowmobilers,  this is for you...
To drive these dogs is to nurture their instincts, and your own.  Their spirit will get up inside you...

 Guests will harness and drive 5-6 dogs with instruction and supervision on the trail.  Your guide will lead you, but your dogs will teach you.  Children can do this with 3-4 dogs. 
  • Drive your own team for the entire time, one person per sled
  • Full Day:  10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., includes trail lunch - $265 per person
  • Half Day:  9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. or 1:00 - 4:00 p.m. - $200 per person
  • Offered daily, no experience required, average fitness will be helpful.  Can you walk a couple of miles without stopping?
