Tubing & Snow Play

This is one adventure everyone in the whole family can enjoy together. Zoom down the snow on a sled or inner tube, or enjoy building a snowman and having a classic snowball fight! Just make sure to pack your sunscreen and bring your camera to capture all of the fun and excitement. Our three top picks of where to go include Heavenly’s Adventure Peak, Adventure Mountain, and Sierra-at-Tahoe.
