Looking for an outdoor activity this winter that’s fun for the whole family? Check out Snow Valley's Coyote Creek Tube Park and Snow Summit's Grizzly Ridge Tube Park and experience the thrill of gliding down the hill in a controlled environment in one of our snow tubes. The tube parks are open daily. Skip the hiking and take a magic carpet to the top of the Tube Park, then slide down as fast as you can in one of our high-speed snow tubes.

The Tube Park is perfect for snow-goers of all ages, with discounts available for groups of 15 or more.
