In a pasture 20 kilometres south of Collingwood and just 30 minutes from Blue Mountain Resort, Rob Roy Farm offers dogsledding excursions for passengers age two to 80 (depending on ability), many of whom split their day with skiing at nearby Blue Mountain and Talisman. After a short lesson in commands—“Hike up!”—hop on the sled and hold on tight. During the winter months, a barn serves as a café, where visitors can get hot chocolate, and groups can arrange for warm drinks and chili.

How Much:
half-hour $65, children under 15 $45.
