Skijoring – Sounds crazy, maybe it is, or maybe it will be the highlight of your trip. It’s simple, just snap on a couple of skis, harness yourself to a few speedy dogs and yell out Davai! (Russian for “go”). Then hold on for your life as you carve across snowy Siberian fields at speeds very few have ever experienced. Sure beats a day at the office!
