We are advising to pre-book your admission tickets in advance either online or over the phone. Prices are found below. We just ask that you turn up 5-10 minutes before your allotted time.

Sno-Tubing
Sno-tubes are large inflatable rings which can be spun and linked together to slide down the slope. They are safe, fun and always popular with all ages. No prior experience needed! Simply get in and enjoy the slide.
The sessions last 20 mins long, when you book you are booking for the designated time slot, the tubing does not generally run for consecutive sessions. (E.g 1pm Tubing will finish at 1.20pm and next session will be at 2.00pm)
Minimum age 4 +
Operates on weekends / School Holidays – Limited spaces available during the allocated sessions!
We strongly recommend you book your tickets in advance, due to the high demand and limited spaces we can offer. If booking with tobogganing tickets book & pay for this first, log out and back in then buy your tubing tickets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Toboggan
Q: Should I pre-book? A: We certainly recommend booking in advance for weekends and school holidays as we get fully booked very quickly. This can be done online or over the telephone. We cannot guarantee selling tickets on the day, if you just turn up.
Q: How long will it take to do the rides? A: It takes about 4 mins on average per run, there may well be queuing time between each ride. We aim to get the rides done as in as efficient manner as possible within the hour. Depending upon the size of the queue on the time and day of your visit can vary the time spent with us.
Q: Cancellation Policy: A: We operate a 48 hour cancellation policy. If you cancel within 48 hours prior to your booking we are not able to offer a refund. If you cancel outside of the 48 hours then we reserve the right to charge a 10% admin fee for cancelling. We do not offer refunds due to the weather unless it’s down to the fact that we decide we cannot operate the run safely. Ice snow etc.
Q: How many people can fit onto a Toboggan?
A: Generally one. Children aged 4-7 years have to ride with an adult at no extra cost. Please call in advance if you need to discuss visiting with any riders who may have special needs.
Q: Do I have to pay if I’m riding with a child?
A: No. If you are riding with a 4-7 year old child you only pay for the child and you go on for free.
Q: What happens if it rains?
A: We are an outdoors Snowsports facility and operate in most weather conditions, when it is safe to do so. Please wear clothing suitable for an outdoor activity. There are no refunds given for cancellations due to the weather, unless we deem it not safe to operate (lightning storms, ice snow etc)
Q: How long is the queue?
A : We have changed to a time slot based system so should be able to get your rides through within the hour (or so!)
Sno-Tubing
Q: Can I book Sno-Tubing Online?
A:Yes. If you were doing this with toboggan rides, book & pay for one of the activities first, then log back in to the system, then book a slot for the other activity, then pay for the other activity.
Q: What should I wear?
A: For Sno-Tubing it is as simple as dressing for the weather. However, we do recommend long sleeves and trousers. Trainers or equivalent shoes are a must.
Q: What time do I need to arrive?
A: Time slots are booked on arrival at the centre.
Birthday Parties: If you are having a birthday party with food, please be on site at least 20 minutes before the start time as we have to take the children’s food orders and make sure all your guests are on site before we start the session. For birthday parties without food then you can arrive between 10-15 minutes before the start time.
Q: How old do you have to be to Sno-Tube?
A: We can take children from 4 years of age upwards for Sno-Tubing.
Q: Can I go on the slope with my child?
A: If your child may struggle taking their Sno-Tube up the hill themselves, then parents are more than welcome to help them carry the tube up the slope.
