Tubing | Schweitzer

Tube with the whole family

Our tubing park has 2 lanes of sliding fun that stretch over 100 yards! Slide on down then sit back and relax as you get pulled back up to the top. Enjoy warm coffee and hot chocolate in the Hermit's Hollow yurt while you rest up for your next slide down! Tubing sessions last 1.5 hours and all tubers must be at least 42" tall to participate. If you have any questions, please visit the Activity Center located in the lower level of Humbird, or give us a call at (833) 854-7669 or (208) 603-5542. Tickets must be pre-purchased (online) for all tubing times as we often sell out! Sign your 2024/25 Winter Liability Waiver before your tubing session!

*Please note, If you have purchased tickets online, you can proceed directly to the tubing hill with your printed tickets for redemption. You do not need to stop in at the Activity Center or anywhere else. You can sign your releases at the Hermit’s Hollow yurt.

Below you'll find our calendars with highlighted dates for winter 24/25. Green dates are our normal operating times. Light Green dates include evening sessions. Blue dates include our NYE evening slot.

Additional Information

Are there restrooms at Hermit’s Hollow?

Yes, there are two pit toilets located right near the Hermit’s Hollow yurt. If you prefer a warmer facility we recommend you visit the restrooms in the main village before heading out to the tubing area.

What should I wear?

Dress for the arctic! Okay, maybe that’s extreme. But really, it can get pretty cold in Schweitzer village. Be sure to wear lots of layers including warm footwear that will keep your feet dry, a warm hat, and thick gloves of course. Goggles, helmets, and other warm accessories are encouraged. Remember, you can always take layers off. Don’t forget the sunscreen!
*Please note, we do not allow ski boots on the tubing hill, but snowboard boots are good to go!*

Can my 8 year old go with their older sibling?

If the sibling is at least 18, then yes! Our attendants are doing their best to look out for everyone’s safety and need a little help in making sure your little ones are paying attention to all the rules.

My child is scared, can they ride on my lap?

Sorry, each participant must ride in their own tube. However, we do have a few double tubes that allow two people to share a ride. If conditions are appropriate, our tubing crew will also allow you to “chain together” tubes so that you can take a cruise as a group. Please check with the crew and they’ll show you how to do this.

Can I bring alcoholic beverages to Hermit’s Hollow tubing?

Sorry, no. However, we have beer for sale in the yurt. You can enjoy your adult beverage in and around the yurt, but will not be allowed to bring your alcoholic beverage into the tubing area. Visibly intoxicated guests will not be allowed to tube. Remember, this is a family friendly area!
