Dogsledding in Minnesota??
Wintergreen Dogsledding
If you’re here because you’re looking for a dogsled vacation in Minnesota or the Midwest, you’re’ home. Ely, Minnesota has more dogsled vacation opportunities that any community in the country (AND we still have real winters here!).
Plus Wintergreen Dogsled Lodge is the nation’s oldest & largest recreational dogsledding center. And getting here is easy. If, on the other hand, you started by searching for another locale, stick around for another few minutes. You won’t find nicer, more comfortable lodges, better food, more experienced guides or take-your-breath-away natural beauty than here.
If after two minutes you’re still not sure, just call us – if Wintergreen isn’t fit for you, we’d be happy to recommend other dogsled outfitters in your location of interest who we know or have heard good things about.
