6. Travel Via Dogsled
There are several businesses in the Jasper area that offer dog sledding tours. Each one covers various terrains and has different itineraries, but they all let you see Jasper while getting to know a pack of huskies. One of the first methods of winter transportation is reportedly dog sledding.
You’ll be surprised at how smooth the ride is and how much ground the dogs can cover when you’re nestled in the sled. The musher actually rides on the sled’s back and serves as a director of sorts for the dogs, telling them when to go faster or slower. Most of these tours give travelers the chance to practice pulling the sled. The length of the tours ranges from a quick hour-long trip to an overnight expedition where you stay in a log cabin out in the wilderness. Wintertime is the only time you can enjoy this activity so be sure to dress warmly.
