SNOWTUBING IS GREAT FUN!

• No special skills are needed for tubing. It is perfectly suited for children and adults alike. The ride downhill cannot be controlled - and that’s what makes it especially exciting.
• There are seven illuminated tracks of differing designs. Two tracks are specifically designed for small snow so that the tiniest visitors can tube safely.
• A modern lift - ‘the magic carpet’ - takes the riders uphill.
• Always use a snow tube on a track that has been designed for this purpose.

SNOWTUBING PRICES INCLUDE AN OPPORTUNITY TO USE A ZIPFY SLED

• Zipfy sleds are very easy to control and they make sledging downhill great fun.
• Zipfy sleds are equipped with a handle; the sled can be turned left or right by grasping the handle and tilting one’s body in the desired direction.
• Zipfy sleds are made in Canada.
