We took the 'Great Divide' dog sled tour and were blown away by the trip. The dogs are obviously very well cared for and happy in their work. Our guides, Douglas and Cody, were very knowledgeable about the area and it's history as well as having a great rapport with their dogs. It was a real treat to be able... More

What an amazing time we had on the dog sled - we laughed until it hurt, not sure from the excitement or the unbelievable way we were driven though a snow forest. More

My husband and I did the Great Divide Dog Sled Tour and it was amazing!! So much fun. You can tell how much the dogs love sledding. Dogs are very well taken care of, you can see their care is top priority. We got to try our hand at sledding and feeding the dogs after the trip. Megan was a... More

We went on the half hour Dog sledding 101, as I didn't know if we would enjoy it, but it has to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life. My son and I went in one sledge , and my husband in another and we were the only two sledges going out. They strapped the eager Alaskan... More

The guide was knowledgable and it was obvious he loved working with the dogs. The whole experience from being greeted upon arrival to helping feed the dogs at the end was really fun. Lots of opportunities for pictures and interaction with the dogs. Was a fantastic ride and I would definitely recommend this activity and Kingmik to my family and... More

This was a great way to experience a traditional mode of transport in Canada. The Great Divide Tour is about an hour and you cross the border into British Columbia sledding along the old Trans Canada Highway. The dogs are very well looked after and friendly. The staff are great and knowledgeable. Be sure to dress very warmly. This activity... More

Dog sledding is something I had wanted to do for a long time. SO I probably picked the coldest day on record to accomplish this and froze my butt ( and fingers and toes) off. Also, no one told me in advance that dogsled dogs are trained to run while pooping and peeing. Think about your view sitting in the... More

I believe they are based in Lake Louise, we made our reservation through the Chateua in Lake Louise. WE experienced the Great Divide Tour with our guide Chris that was unforgettable. The enthusiasm of the dogs and the professionalism of the... More
