Snow Tubing in Wisconsin: Eight Great Places to Go for Family Fun

Tubing hills in Wisconsin aren’t just neighborhood spots you can sled. These days, they’re specially-made areas at ski hills and feature multiple lanes, conveyor lifts, and snow-making.

Grab your winter gear and bring the whole family for a great Wisconsin winter adventure—snow tubing! Snow tubing has quickly become one of the fastest-growing winter activities, and an increasing number of ski resorts are making big improvements to their tubing areas.

Most hills provide tubes and feature lift systems that take guests to the top of the hill.

Here are 8 must-visit tubing hills to check out:

Badlands Snow Park, Hudson
This tubing resort is spread out over 25 acres and features 7 separate hills, including what they say are several of the steepest, tallest, and longest in the country. It even has 5 tow ropes to get you to the top.

Bruce Mound Winter Sports Area, Merrillan
Located 15 miles from Black River Falls and Neillsville, this small Clark County-operated downhill area is perfect for a family outing. It has 10 tubing lanes and a newly-added conveyor lift for getting up the hill.

Cascade Mountain, Portage
This downhill area between Wisconsin Dells and Madison has five lanes of tubing with 900’ chutes. There’s even some midweek fun with Tubing Tuesdays: a dinner deal and four hours of tubing.

Christie Mountain, Bruce
At the tubing park, you can choose from an easy and gentle chute that glides you to the bottom, or a faster lane that cruises over bumps and jumps. There are 200 snow tubes to accommodate day or night tubing in the Blue Hills of western Wisconsin.

Christmas Mountain Village, Wisconsin Dells
This downhill area four miles west of the downtown Dells has a tubing hill with handle tow.

Trollhaugen, Dresser
This downhill area in the St. Croix River Valley offers 10 tubing lanes with varying curves and pitches and a conveyor lift.

Wilmot Mountain, Wilmot
Wilmot is a top tubing resort between Madison and Milwaukee and features 22 snow tubing lanes, each over 1,000 feet long. At night, the tubing area lights up for more winter fun.

Winter Park, Kewaunee
This county-run downhill area just west of this Lake Michigan town near Green Bay has five runs. It has a newly-added conveyor belt that  transports tubers from the bottom of the hill to the top in less than 2 minutes.
