Here is a list of places to go snow tubing- the sophisticated cousin of old fashioned sledding.
With absolutely no skills necessary, snow tubing is a great winter family fun activity to get your heart pumping with all the thrill that the winter season brings.
Most snow tubing locations have height restrictions of 42″ (at least) and weight of 250lbs (not over).
Select locations offer snow tubing birthday parties.
Always call and check to verify operating hours, before you travel.
If you do not have a car, and want to try snow tubing, you can visit Mount Chinguacousy in Brampton or ROC, Georgina using public transit.
What to wear: Hat, gloves, boots, a snow jacket, and snow pants. Helmets for young kids, if you prefer.
