What you get for the price

snow tubingskiingsnowboarding

1-hour session $16; 2-hour session $21; tube rental included

Rough cost for a family of four: about $64.00 at the posted starting rate, before rentals, food, or parking. Many parks sell tubing by the hour or by a fixed session rather than a full-day pass — check the note above for exactly what that price buys.

Our take

Snowhaven Ski & Tubing Area is a municipal hill in Grangeville, run by the City of Grangeville, and the tubing runs are its big draw: two 1,100-foot runs with about a 150-foot vertical drop. A 600-foot lift carries riders back to the top of each run.

Tickets are listed by the hour: $16 for one hour and $21 for two, tube rental included, so a two-hour block costs only a few dollars more. The park is open weekends and select holidays from 10 AM to 4 PM. Hours and open dates are posted on a separate page of the city’s site, so confirm those before you drive.

The rules are clear and worth planning for. Riders must be 4 years old or 42 inches tall, and children under 6 must be with an adult. It is one person per tube, the park requires its own custom tubes (41 inches wide outside), and hard ski or snowboard boots are prohibited. Linking tubes depends on the weather.

There is no night tubing listed and the park is not open midweek, so it fits a weekend day trip. For a resort setup with a magic carpet and evening sessions, Brundage Mountain in McCall is about 60 miles away, and Silver Mountain is about 112 miles away.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Weekend and holiday days from 10 AM to 4 PM, the only days listed. Confirm open dates on the city's site before you go.

How long to budget

What to bring

  • Mittens that survive a 600-foot tow rope

Who it suits

Good for

  • Families who want long runs without resort prices
  • Kids 4 and older who can handle a tow rope back up
  • Groups that want to link tubes when conditions allow

Skip it if

You want a weekday trip, night tubing (not listed), or you plan to share a tube: the rule is one person per tube, and hard ski or snowboard boots are prohibited.

Worth pairing with

Brundage Mountain in McCall is the closest alternative at about 60 miles straight-line, and it offers lit night tubing on Friday to Sunday.
