Enodah Kennel Dog Sledding
Enjoy the peaceful Boreal Forest by way of dogsledding. You will feel at one with the dogs as they lead you through the scenic trails of Enodah. You will learn the name and character of each dog on your team, to better understand why they are put in their different positions. Enodah Kennel is located 15-minutes from Yellowknife in our own secluded section of forest. We train all our dogs to be loose together and we work 12 months of the year training and exercising our pack of sled dogs. We encourage all our guests to interact with the dogs after the tour. Puppy cuddles are a must have!
This is a 45-minute activity in total, including a safety speech from your guides. This is a “Drive Your Own Sled” tour, but do not worry, you will be under very close supervision from Enodah’s experienced guides who will be more than happy to help you along the trail! We encourage interaction with our happy working huskies and will gladly take photos of you driving the team through the forest.

See the dogs in their natural environment when they are let loose to play with guests and interact and play together.

Diamonds de Canada
Canada has a deep love for our natural resources with diamonds being the highest expression of love. Thanks to Canada’s world class standard for sustainable mining, we are custodians of our precious lands and take great pride and care releasing these rare gems. From the moment our land is surveyed to the final reclamation (the process of restoring the land to its former condition), respect is given to the land that provides life to the diverse ecosystem of the great white north.
With such deep love for our natural resources, even greater care is given to each diamond, releasing the ideal blend of intense fire and brilliance. Some of our talented polishers have come to the north from around the world with a desire to polish the diamonds from Canada, renown in the polishing communities as optically superior rough crystals.
Based in the capital of the Northwest Territories of Canada, Diamonds de Canada brings experience from both aboriginal and international talent with an expertise to polish beautiful diamonds. Let us show you the difference.
