A lifted ski-area hill west of Alexandria with 2-hour or all-day tickets, weekend tandem tethering and Neon Nights events.
Loading current conditions…
Andes Tower Hills is a 16-run ski area about half an hour west of Alexandria, and its tubing hill has multiple chutes served by both a handle tow and a magic carpet. The record lists snowmaking and night tubing, and the park runs Neon Nights events.
The ticket structure is the standout. The park lists $25 for 2 hours, $30 for an all-day ticket and $5 for each additional hour, and the ticket includes the lift ride and the tube. Each rider needs a separate tube, the minimum height is 42 inches and the minimum recommended age is 4. Tandem tethering is available on weekends and holidays. Expect no refunds, and leave ski boots in the car.
The park’s page said tubing was open Saturdays, Sundays and holidays starting Dec. 20, 2025, and warned that lines get longer in pleasant weather between 12:30pm and 4:30pm. Our record lists daily seasonal hours, so confirm the current schedule.
