About Wolfsong Adventures in Mushing
Wolfsong Adventures in Mushing runs dog sledding trips from a hillside kennel on Pratt Road overlooking Lake Superior, just outside Bayfield, Wisconsin. The kennel is home to more than thirty Seppala and Chukchi Siberian huskies — direct descendants of the dogs Leonard Seppala drove on the 1925 serum run to Nome made famous by Balto and Togo.
Trips are hands-on by design: guests learn to harness their team, ride the runners, and drive the sled themselves rather than just sitting in the basket. Options range from two-and-a-half-hour daily outings to four-hour trips with lunch, weekend mushing packages, and full winter camping expeditions for the adventurous. The season follows the northern Wisconsin snowpack, typically mid-December through late March, and trips are welcoming to all ages and abilities.
The bloodline is the story here — few kennels anywhere can trace their teams to the serum-run Siberians, and the owners share that history along the trail. Combined with the hands-on teaching approach and the backdrop of snow-covered Bayfield County hills, Wolfsong delivers one of the Midwest's most authentic mushing experiences, earning it coverage from state tourism outlets and consistently glowing visitor reviews.
