Our take

Canaan Valley Resort is the long-run pick in West Virginia’s Davis area: a 1,200-foot course with multiple lanes served by a magic carpet, described as the longest tubing run in the Mid-Atlantic. You ride up, not walk up, so a two-hour session is mostly runs rather than climbing.

Plan around the ticket window. The resort says everyone checks in there and buys a ticket before riding, and tickets are sold by session rather than by the hour. Our record lists 2-hour sessions and a lighted course with night tubing, but the resort’s page doesn’t publish session times or prices, so call before you drive. Pass holders at the resort get a discount.

Kids need to be at least 4 and 42 inches tall, and the resort wants a responsible adult with any child. Riders also need to be able to sit upright on their own.

If you’re staying in the Davis area, Timberline Mountain is about 4 miles away, but it lists only 2 lanes and describes tubing as a side attraction, so Canaan is the better tubing stop of the two.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Sessions are sold individually and the resort lists night tubing, so an evening session is the one to look at first. Call the resort for current session times, since the tubing page does not publish them.

How long to budget

One 2-hour session, with extra time to check in at the ticket window first.

Accessibility

Riders must be able to sit upright while tubing, per the resort's tubing page.

What to bring

  • Waterproof gloves for dragging a hand to steer and slow
  • Something warm for the check-in line at the ticket window

How to spend less here

  • Season pass holders get a discount on tubing sessions, per the resort.

Who it suits

Good for

  • Riders who want a long run: the course is listed at 1,200 feet
  • Evening tubing on a lighted course
  • Families with kids at least 4 years old and 42 inches tall
  • Beginners: no skiing or snowboarding experience is needed

Skip it if

Your child is under 4 or shorter than 42 inches, or you can't get an adult to ride along with a child, since the resort requires children to be accompanied by a responsible adult.

Worth pairing with

Timberline Mountain is only about 4 miles away but lists just 2 lanes, and Wisp Resort Snow Tubing in McHenry, Maryland is about 37 miles off if you want a second hill.
