Sled Dog Rides and Demos

The Door County Sled Dogs provide weekly dog sled rides at Milwaukee’s Whitnall Park – a premier winter wonderland. These take place on Saturday and Sunday 11am to 1pm, November through March weather permitting. All rides are on a first-come first-served basis and are for all ages. The entire experience includes visiting with the dogs, question and answer time with the mushers, picture-taking time and an actual dog sled ride around the trail.

Feel what it’s like to ride on an authentic freight sled, see the dogs pulling from behind, and know that this is the  real thing!

The cost is $10 for children and $15 for adults. Rides take place at the Whitnall Park golf course warming house (5879 S. 92nd St. Franklin, Wisc.).

Also, remember that all group and special event rides take place on the  beautiful Milwaukee Lakefront (Jan. thru Feb. only so book early). You can find out more about our group and special event rides on our Education page.  See you on the trail!
