Dog sledding in Mongolia is a thrilling and immersive way to explore the country’s icy backcountry. Your sled is powered by Alaskan huskies, well-trained for winter travel.

Guided by experienced mushers, the route weaves through Gorkhi-Terelj and Khentii mountain ranges—where forests, mountains, and frozen rivers create a dramatic backdrop.

This activity supports sustainable tourism and offers rare access to nomadic life in winter. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned adventurer, dog sledding in Mongolia is about teamwork, connection with nature, and serenity amidst the silence of the snowy steppe.
