CheckLook the morning you goThese hills open only with enough snow, and some need frozen ground. The park’s own page is the one that says whether today is a go.
SafetyHelmet, feet first, open slopeA helmet helps. Ride feet first on a slope that ends before trees, roads, and frozen ponds. Tubing parks measure height and usually will not let a child under the minimum ride on a grown-up’s lap.
PackLayers and the right sledBring waterproof layers, mittens, and a dry change of clothes. Use only the sled the park allows. A lot of hills ban metal rails, toboggans, and tubes that are not made for snow.
Each listing comes from the venue’s or organizer’s own page and links to it. We only list a date, time or price when that page shows it, and anything we can’t confirm stays off. These were last checked Nov 9, 2026, and we recheck them when the season opens and again after a big snow. How we choose and check.
