In the evening, when we get to our Eco-Lodge deep inside the forests of the Algonquin Park area, everyone helps out with the chores. The first thing to do is look after our hard working dogs! This comprises of feeding and watering them. We also have to make sure they have suitable shelter from the cold night wind. We are then free to relax and enjoy a sumptuous meal. And don't forget to partake in our winter ritual - Polar Bear dips! Then jump into the outdoor hot tub or sauna! Afterwards, we sit around the old fashioned wood stove and exchanging travellers' tales and ghost stories! Or go for a midnight snowshoe hike. Either way, the wood stove and wood furnace ensure that we're all toasty warm at night! This trip is the real thing! You get a 6-8 dog team, with only two mushers per sled. It's just the two of you, your sled, and your Huskies! We travel about 30 km each day along the twisting trails through Algonquin forests, covering some of the most majestic landscapes in the world. This is where the "Group Of Seven" painted some of their finest works. This adventure is one you won't soon forget - New Year's Day in the forests of Algonquin Park!
