The Husky: intelligent, good-natured - and born to run! Dog sledding is a real adventure - there is quite simply nothing like the sensation of being in control of your own dogsled, putting your trust in your dogs and earning their friendship in return. Don’t be shy to cheer them up or even pad them. They’ll give it to you back. These dogs absolutely live to pull. The pulling instinct is so strong that they need training nearly every day.
There is a number of companies in Mongolia who offers dog sleeding trips organized either in the Terelj National Park, Khentii Mountains, or further North on the Khuvsgul lake, depending on the duration of your trip. Starting in November through March it's a great opportunity to take the dogs over a frozen river.
