Winter Tubing FAQs

Where is winter tubing?

Winter tubing takes place at the top of the Elk Camp Gondola. The tubing hill has multiple lanes, so you can make repeated runs rather than getting a single ride. It's lift-served, meaning you don't have to hike back uphill carrying your tube after each lap.

Do I need reservations for tubing?

Reservations are strongly encouraged. Tubing can sell out during busy periods, particularly on popular winter days. Booking ahead—and arriving before 1:00pm when possible—can improve your chances of getting the time you want.

Is tubing good for families?

Yes. It's one of the more approachable ways for skiing and non-skiing family members to share a snowy activity. The lanes provide the speed and excitement while avoiding the learning curve associated with skiing. It's particularly handy as a post-skiing activity if the kids aren't quite ready to call it a day.
