What is snow tubing?

Snow tubing is a fun winter activity where riders slide down groomed snow lanes using inflatable tubes. No experience is required—just hop in and enjoy the ride.​

We recommend that you reserve and pay for your tubing session on line prior to arriving at Dry Hill. Tubing sessions are first come, first served, unless otherwise posted. Sessions may sell out on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks, so arriving early is recommended.​
