New Hampshire Is Home To The Country’s Most Underrated Snow Tubing Park And You’ll Want To Visit
(Editor’s Note: Unfortunately, Granite Gorge is permanently closed.)
There are a lot of great reasons to be in New Hampshire throughout the year. From visiting our little coastline during the summer to exploring the green trees and high summits….well, just about any time. But when we really shine is during the winter. Between skiing and all the other things that are possible each winter, there’s never a dull moment if you’re the type that looks for adventure. But no matter what your level of winter exploration desires you’ll love snow tubing at this spot. It’s pretty awesome and the Granite State is lucky to claim it as its own. Read on to find out more about one of the best places for snow tubing in New Hampshire.
You probably already know that Granite Gorge Ski Area, located in Keene, is a great place to go for tons of winter activities. From downhill skiing to cross-country skiing to snowshoeing, if you love being outside when it’s cold, you’ll love it here.
But, we particularly love the snow tubing at Granite Gorge! The snow tubing slope is a whopping 950 feet, making this far more than just a little slide. It may be one of the best snow tubing hills in New Hampshire!
And, they allow any type of style going downhill - including the ability to link up with others on three of their double-wide lines making for a really wild ride!
The best part? Once you get to the bottom, getting back to the top is a breeze. They’ve got a super fast Wondercarpet lift, which means the trip to the top is just 2.5 minutes.
There are more than 150 tubes available to rent, so you probably won’t have to worry about being shut out and having to wait for someone to return theirs.
Snow tubing is a great way to enjoy winter without going through the lessons of skiing. It’s quick, easy and un-fussy, which is why we love it compared to skiing.
Granite Gorge Ski Area is located at 341 Route 9 in Keene, New Hampshire. You can call them on 603-358-5000. For more information on this awesome place for snow tubing in New Hampshire, visit their website or check them out on Facebook.
