Dog sledding at the Plateau de Beille On all cross-country skiing or snowshoeing holidays based in Ax-les-Thermes,  there is the possibility of trying out dogsledding with the local experts, Angaka. 
The Plateau de Beille is an excellent place to give dogsledding a go. There is a dedicated 3km piste around the plateau with stunning views across to the high peaks of Andorra and into the valley of Ax far below. 

There are over 60 huskies based up at the Plateau de Beille and there are various options:

‘Balade’ - You sit in the sled and are taken on a 3km / 15 minute loop. There are normally 10 to 15 dogs in the team who are controlled by an experienced driver. This costs 25 Euros per person.

Musher’ - In this 2.5 hour session, you are trained to drive and control your own team of up to 5 dogs. Once you have mastered the basics (cornering and stopping) you will be taken on a guided loop of the plateau with some off piste. This costs 90 Euros per person.
