Snow Tubing from Northern Virginia
Published by Sara on Tagged UncategorizedThe holidays have come and gone and I’ve got my eyes out for a good place to go snow tubing that is relatively close by. I’ll post my research in hopes that it will benefit others. I have not tried out ANY of these places yet so cannot recommend them based on experience. If you’ve been to any, please let me know!

I have been to Bryce Mountain Resort, very beautiful here! Slopes are pretty good, I’ve watched people tube here, but I’ve never done it myself. Snowboarder!
It’s secluded little “town” has everything, from apartments to rent to houses, to 2 resturants. Golf Course. Pretty cool place, a little bit out in the country though.. not much else to do around.
Whitetrail resort is much better, cleaner, newer looking in my eyes…. Very very cool place! I haven’t been tubing here either, but I’ve been to the top of the slopes! Sorry I can’t help with the tubing part. I’ve been to Bryce for longer vacation stays multiple times, and it can get boring. I’ve been to whitetail on day trips, and haven’t gotten to do much exploring around town.
Those are my two cents.
