What Is Skijoring?
Skijoring is a winter sport where a cross-country skier is pulled by one or more dogs connected via a towline and hip belt. Combining skiing technique with dog handling, skijoring is both a competitive race discipline and a popular recreational activity across Scandinavia and North America. Races typically range from 5 km to 20 km on groomed trails. MushingPlan provides the GPS tracking and training tools skijoring athletes need to improve speed, technique, and dog partnership.
