Tube Park, Whistler

Address Whistler Way, Whistler, British Columbia, CANADA V0N 1B4 Map, Website

This is my son's favorite activity in Whistler, It's a great way for kids who aren't skiing yet to have fun in the snow, and a fun way to unwind when you're too tired to ski another run. The Whistler Tube Park has eight different lanes with runs of varying difficulty and a mini-tube area for kids over 36" tall (about 3 years old). Kids must be able to ride in their own tube, not an adult lap, but the tubes have handles that you can hold onto.

No special equipment is required (but dress the kids warmly and in waterproof clothing). To get to the tube park, take the Blackcomb gondola to the first stop and follow the signs. A lift ticket is not required (tubing tickets are available at the venue). Call ahead to make sure that the Tube park is open as it may close in foggy weather conditions.
