Want to make your family ski trip extra special? Check out these four awesome tubing hills in Summit County, and watch your kids have the time of their lives while racing down the hill. Better yet, make memories with them, hop in your own tube and zoom down that hill together!
1) Frisco
The Frisco Adventure Park tubing hill is a place for kids to have fun and adults to feel like kids again! The tubing lanes are 1,200′ long and include a lift service up the hill so you don’t have to hike. That means more tubing and less huffing and puffing! The tubing hill is open until 6 pm, so the fun doesn’t have to stop when the chairlifts do.

Hours: 10 am – 6 pm
Cost: $25/hour, $10 for an extra hour

2) Keystone
Tubing at Adventure Point is a sure fire way to make sure your child has the time of their life on your family ski trip. The tubing hill at keystone has a covered magic carpet ride to the top, ensuring more smiles and giggles per hour.

3) Copper
The Tubing Hill at Copper is outright exhilarating. In their own words, “all tubing hills are not made equal.” The lanes are extra wide and have banked curves, bringing this hill to a whole new level. Not only does Copper kick the thrill aspect up a few notches, but they make it easier for you to get those extra laps in. They provide riders with a quick and efficient service lift back up the mountain called “The Stinger.” The tow is hooked directly onto your tube, so you can just sit back and relax while you get whisked to the top for another run.
