Activities, Camps and After School Classes in Wasilla, AK

If you are brave enough to visit Alaska in the winter then you have to go dog sledding! Our 1.5-hour winter dog sled tour is a great introduction to mushing. Drive or sit in the sled with one of our guides, learn all about how we train and prepare our dogs for races like the 1,000-mile Iditarod, hear exciting tales from the trail, and experience Alaska’s state sport for yourself!

Experience a real working dairy farm in The Last Frontier! Sun Fire Ridge is an independent, historic family farm nestled in the scenic mountain foothills of the MatSu Valley. Get an exclusive up close and personal look at farm life from past to present as our milkmaid takes you through a day in the life of a farmer in Alaska - including a real milking demonstration, feeding and petting our cows, sheep, and rabbits, turning them out to pasture (seasonal), and bottle feeding baby calves (when available). Additionally, each private tour is full of amazing farm animal and western style selfie photo opportunities. Our friendly cows, sheep, and rabbits can't wait to meet you!

Our champion sled dog kennel is family-owned and operated in Willow, Alaska, the mushing capital of the world! Let us introduce you to our team of Iditarod dogs, experience a traditional Alaskan sled ride, and learn about our unique dog-driven lifestyle. We welcome you to our home, a humanitarian-winning kennel with the fastest distance-racing dogs in the country!

Your experience will start at Turning Heads Kennel - a real mushing kennel, owned and operated by two Iditarod mushers. During the sled ride you will be able to see how absolutely beautiful Alaska is in the winter. Enjoy a true Alaskan experience of going mushing on a sled pulled by a team of Alaskan Huskies. Your musher will tell you about the sport of mushing, the races that happen around the state during the winter and all the training done during the summer.
