Looking for something different to do this summer in the ski resort of La Pierre Saint-Martin? Take a hike with sled dogs in the Braca forest!

What could be better than walking in the Pyrenees, one of the essential mountain activities for making the most of the scenery and fresh air? And for an even more unforgettable getaway, why not decide to go hiking with sled dogs at La Pierre Saint-Martin? Attached to a Nordic dog with the help of a belt and an elastic landyard, you will discover an extraordinary new way of walking in the great outdoors!

This canine trek in La Pierre Saint-Martin will take you through the Braca forest, along easy paths to beautiful viewpoints of the surrounding peaks. You will walk for 45 minutes to 1 hour, alone or by 2 adults (aged 14 and over) behind a Nordic breed dog (Alaskan husky, Siberian husky, etc.), followed by a qualified musher to guide you throughout the outing. Children aged 2 to 6 can also enjoy the activity aboard a Sulky, a trailer that will also be towed by one of the dogs in the pack, making this hike with sled dogs a perfect experience for the whole family!

Between bonding with adorable sled dogs and discovering superb mountain scenery, this hike with sled dogs in Arette La Pierre Saint-Martin is a not-to-be-missed getaway this summer in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques!
