Rowdy Bear’s Slippery Slope is an outdoor hill over 500 feet long with a 70-foot drop, and two magic carpet conveyors take riders to the top so nobody walks up. Our record counts 11 lanes, and the park bills itself as the largest in Tennessee.
Sessions are 90 minutes long and run daily during the season, and reservations are mandatory. The official page notes high demand and asks you to book as soon as possible. Every rider needs a tube and a wristband. Tickets are not refunded for reserved times, though rain checks are issued for extreme weather closures. Pricing isn’t shown on the page we could read, so check rowdybearmountain.com for rates.
Height rules matter here. Children need to be 40 inches tall to ride with an adult, those from 40 to 47 inches ride in connected tubes with an adult, and solo riders need 47 inches. The weight limit is 325 lbs. The page says snow tubing returns in fall 2026.
For an indoor alternative, Pigeon Forge Snow is next door, and Ober Gatlinburg is about 6 miles away. The best young-kids list has more low-height options.
Reserve early, because the park itself cites high demand; sessions run daily in 90-minute blocks, and it is closed until snow tubing returns in fall 2026.
