Dog Sled Our Mountain This Winter

Experience Mountain View Grand like never before..at the speed of dog! We are excited to announce a new partnership between Mountain View, Muddy Paw Sled Dog Kennel and the N.H.

Rides are available from mid-December through April, weather and trail conditions permitting.

There are two programs available:

Introduction to the Art of Dog Sledding in New Hampshire – History, Hands-On Interaction and a Ride
Get a behind-the-scenes look at the tradition of mushing with a daytime, 45-minute interactive experience. Meet and greet the dogs, pet them, hear their stories, help harness and hitch the team, receive a brief history lesson, and even shout commands and help drive the team (at musher discretion for dog and guest safety, of course).Designed for families and couples who want to take the time to learn about sled dogs (20-25 minutes), then go on an incredible one-and-a-half to two-mile ride (20-30 minutes).

A Grand Adventure – 5-mile Dogsled Ride
