Breckenridge Dogsledding Adventure: 6-Mile Husky Experience

Description

Breckenridge offers a 6-mile dogsledding tour through the stunning Swan River Valley, guided by a team of Siberian Huskies and experienced instructors. The tour operates as a relay, allowing participants to switch between mushing the sled, riding in it, and taking in the scenery from a small passenger sleigh ahead of the husky team. Guests learn how to run the sled and interact with the dogs, all while enjoying the breathtaking snowy landscapes. The activity is suitable for children ages 4 and up, with guides providing a comprehensive tutorial on mushing and sled operation. After the tour, visitors can spend time with the huskies, who are as eager for affection as they are to run.

We had an AMAZING time at Good Times Adventures in Breckenridge! This was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip and such a special experience for our whole family. Alec was an incredible tour guide—so fun, patient, and great with kids. He made everyone feel comfortable and truly added to the magic of the experience. The dogs were absolutely beautiful, so well cared for, and full of personality. Our family loved every single minute, and we are still talking about it! We cannot recommend this experience enough—truly unforgettable.

We participated in a summer tour of the kennel, foregoing the sled (golf cart) ride. Even though we opted out of the ride with the dogs, our experience was top notch! Our guide, Blake, was very knowledgeable, friendly and clearly loved and knows each individual dog very well. Be prepared to be slightly dirty when you leave a summer tour; it's dusty and the sweet pups love to jump and lick (in a good way!). It was wonderfully interactive, we were given advice on each dog's personality (i.e. give them space or give them lots of belly rubs!). I have a 12yo son on the spectrum and he was incredibly nervous about what to expect, the physical interactions with the dogs, etc. and he did GREAT and it was his highlight of our entire Colorado trip. It looks intimidating pulling in; SO many dogs to see and take in, but the tour is structured in a way that makes each section totally enjoyable. The dogs were GREAT with my two kids (12yo & 10yo). We would absolutely participate again if we're ever in the Breckenridge area!

We arrived early and were able to soak in the beauty of the forest and the sound of howling huskies! It was music to my ears! Our guides were wonderful and so informative! Since this was the summer tour we got a bit dirty, but it was worth it! We are former husky owners and will definitely reach out when we are ready to adopt one of the retired dogs. We also want to come back and try the winter adventure.

The group loved the summer dog sledding experience. Blake was super informative and made it very enjoyable. The dogs are so sweet and love the work they are doing plus cuddles too. Highly recommend!

My fiancée and I took the two hour snowmobiling tour. TJ was our guide; needless to say he was excellent at his job. We had so much fun and TJ gave a lot of information about the trail and area; he also made sure the entire ride was safe. Highly recommend Good Time Adventures
