Additional welcome

For safety reasons, children under 12 years old (or according to the musher's judgment) will do the activity as passengers sitting in the sled of the musher while the parents will drive their own teams. In easy passages, if the musher thinks it's possible, the child will be able to drive double with him. Only the musher will make the decisions adapted to the various situations.
For reasons of safety, lack of snow or physical condition not suited to the activity, Nanook reserves the right to either modify or cancel the performance. No need to be a great sportsman, but good fitness and balance are necessary to practice driving.
