There's nothing too strenuous about our Spring dogsledding trips, so most people should be able to enjoy them to the full without breaking into a sweat!
On the whole, our Clients generally have a reasonable level of fitness and a clean bill of health. Whilst out with the dogs, you'll find yourself spending much of the time beneath a pile of furs on a dogsled and expending very few calories. However, there may be times when the slope is too steep for the dogs and so walking beside the sledges using snowshoes becomes necessary. You should never have to carry any heavy loads.
Very little experience of the outdoors or even of camping is required, although an enjoyment of cold climates is an advantage. Our experienced leaders will always be on hand for any advice or tips regarding life on the ice. Most of them prefer it to a fully-serviced campsite - it's certainly quieter! Our camps for the dogsled expeditions are usually pitched before the main party gets in, and your sleeping bag is already laid out. All you need to do is arrive and enjoy the steaming hot drink that's just been handed to you.
