Our take

Mount Ski Gull in Nisswa runs a tubing hill called Ricochet Alley, described as one of the largest in the state with 5 to 6 runs. The park added a new 700-foot magic carpet conveyor, so riders do not walk back up.

Planning is about booking. The record lists reservations as required and mentions online 2-hour passes, so buy your slot before you drive. The hill lists night tubing and snowmaking, and the season is listed from mid-December to about March 1. The park also lists group and private tubing options and birthday party packages, which suit a bigger crew that wants the hill to itself. Price, minimum age and height are not in our record, so check the park’s site or call 218-963-4353.

Because the hill is booked by time slot, arrive a little early to check in. Our group and party guide covers planning for larger parties.

Other parks in our data are far. Mont du Lac is about 82 miles away and Detroit Mountain Recreation Area is about 87 miles away, so this is the pick if you are already in Nisswa.
