Dog sledding on the Arselle plateau in Chamrousse
Belledonne
This adventurous experience will delight both young and old, offering a fantastic way to explore the countryside. The dogs love gliding across the snow-covered Arselle plateau, a popular spot for cross-country skiers. Nestled between ski trails and fir forests, this little paradise is perfect for trying dog sledding. The sleds move swiftly, landscapes rush by, and you’ll feel like an adventurer for the day. It’s a wonderful family activity that creates unforgettable memories!
Be surprised on a cani-snowshoe hike in the Vercors
Vercors
Snowshoeing is accessible to everyone, and this winter, there’s an exciting new way to experience it—cani-snowshoeing! This fun family activity (labelled Famille Plus) combines snowshoeing with the companionship of friendly dogs.
Before you set off, you’ll be equipped with a comfortable shoulder belt that connects to the harness of the sled dog in front of you via an elastic leash. A musher will guide you, teaching basic techniques along the way while the dog gently pulls you forward. It’s especially enjoyable for children, who will love walking alongside their four-legged friends and forming a special bond during the adventure!
