Most of us are familiar with dog sledding, the sport where a dog or team of dogs pulls a person on a sled. Skijoring is similar, except the person is on cross-country skis. Owners of active dogs love these pastimes because it gets them outside and lets the dog burn off some extra energy. If you have a dog with some pent-up winter energy, you can bring it to Three Rivers Park District for fun winter exercise where we have designated trails for skijoring and dog sledding.
Dog sleds with rubber wheels are allowed at Murphy-Hanrehan and Crow-Hassan until the trails are snow-covered.
Multi-use trails do not require a pass except the shared snowmobile trails at Murphy-Hanrehan and Crow Hassan. For a dog sledding and skijoring pass call 763.559.9000. A cross-country ski pass is not required for skijoring or dog sledding.
