Observe the beauty of these dogs joining forces to create a common and unparalleled force. An unusual experience to live that seduces everyone!
An outing in the Lienz forest
It is in the heart of the hook pine forests of the Lienz plateau that you can meet the mushers of theWild Call and their pack of Husky. With them, embark on a dog sled ride in a natural setting with winter colors.
Passionate about their job as mushers and especially about their dogs with whom they have established a real relationship of trust, the members of the team are committed to sharing their daily lives with as many people as possible.
In the shoes of a musher
This is how it is possible to visit the kennel, participate in a driving course or even spend the evening and the night up there to spend more time in the company of the dogs.
The little ones (from 3 years old and up to 7 years old) can also take advantage of this activity during a day at the Baby Park to learn how to drive their own sled in complete safety.
the profession of musher
Meeting with Julia, an aspiring musheuse who lives in Val d’Azun. With her pack of 7 dogs, she trains every day on the trails aroundArrens-Marsous, especially between the Col de Couraduque and the Val d'Azun.
The start of a passion
"I started cani-mountain biking 10 years ago with my dog Guinness, to whom I owe my passion, to share a sporting activity together; back in the Pyrenees I switched to scooters, then to karts when I I've had more dogs. They are the ones who progress more and I learn a little more every day thanks to them! I no longer count these wonderful sunrises which are always different with each outing, the starry sky above out of my head and nothing else around."
I have 7 dogs: an Alaskan Malamute (who comes with us free from the age of 10) and 6 Alaskan huskies. On a daily basis, it's a lot of time spent with them to educate them, create a bond with each dog and train them, often very early in the morning or very late in the evening. It's also a lot of bowls to prepare and a lot of droppings to pick up daily (but when you love, you don't count, right?)! But that's 7 times more hugs, and a lot of fun.
"If there was really one to give, it would be to get closer to clubs and events around mushing in order to meet as many people as possible in the field, and their dogs, who will be very good advice. I am part of the CPSTC , one of the oldest clubs in the area and it is with them that I learned a lot."
