ALPES'HUSKIES is a 4-season sled dog tourism facility. It also offers adapted activities for disabled people and animal mediation.
4 SEASON ACTIVITIES
Mushing’EXPERIENCE (4-season carriage experience) (Champéry)
Come and enjoy an experience with the competition huskies of Violaine, 2024 and 2025 world champion in her discipline, in the enchanting setting of Grand Paradis in Champéry. Sitting in the sled or kart, weather permitting, and guided by a musher, you’ll enjoy a unique and magical experience.
Discover the fabulous history of mushing, meet these extraordinary dogs, stroke them and take photos with them, take part in the harnessing and learn how to use the equipment if desired! Time is divided into 3 parts: introduction to mushing, sled/kart baptism, cuddles and photos with the dogs. This activity is ideal for families and requires no special skills.

Accompanied walking tour, harnessed and pulled by the power of a dog, on an easy, relatively flat route along a pretty river in the forest. 1h experience. Suitable for people with mild disabilities (no chair, good motor skills).
