Tour Val di Funes (Villnöss)
The soft sound of paws on the snow, the whistling of the gentle breeze running through the valleys, the soft, never intrusive colours of the winter landscapes, our hearts meeting those of the little dogs, regenerating the soul and mind.
The Funes Valley Tour is an experience that involves all perceptual-sensory abilities, offering unique emotions that become indelible memories.

After the first 15-20 minutes, during which a theoretical-practical briefing will explain the basic rules for safely while driving a sledge, we will set off on our excursion.
This tour's uniqueness lies in the fact that during the excursion we will witness a sudden and astounding change of scenery: having started under the shadow of the colossal Sass de Putia, which dominates Passo delle Erbe, after a few hairpin bends the fascinating image of the Odle chain, the millenary queens of Val di Funes, will present itself to our eyes.
The route stretches for almost 7 km along a marvellous, predominantly downhill track, which makes the experience both easy and extremely harmonious.
The destination of this idyllic journey is the Halslhütte mountain hut, where we will warm up and savour the best flavours of Tyrolean cuisine in front of one of the most famous and admirable landscapes in the Dolomites.
The surprises are not over! On the return journey, you will be transported by snowmobile, allowing you to appreciate again the extraordinary views of the outward journey.
There will be breaks along the way for four main reasons: firstly the aim of this experience is not to take part in a dog sledding competition, but to experience a unique relationship with our team and with nature by having the opportunity to stop and appreciate the breathtaking views we will encounter; secondly, because we may need to catch our breath (lacking due to the altitude and physical exertion); the third reason is linked to the cleanliness of the track since our guide will take care of picking up the droppings, not to spoil the wonderful places we find ourselves in; last but not least, we may also stop to take a few photos.
Dog sledding is a sport that requires effort during the performance. Thanks to this effort, we can easily create a relationship of respect and cooperation with our cuddly friends. However, those who choose to experience this adventure must be healthy and in acceptable athletic condition; in this regard, but above all for the dog's health, there is a weight limit of 90kg.
Children must be at least 3 years old to participate. The youngest children must be carried in the sled by the musher (instructor) who will be their guide throughout the experience. For children who aspire to drive their own sled, there are physical requirements in terms of minimum height and minimum weight, which will be clarified when booking.
