Tackle An 8-Lane Snow Tubing Hill At Gaylord Texan Resort In Texas This Year

Gaylord Texan Resort transforms into a winter wonderland with snow tubing and festive activities during the holiday season.

Snow? In Texas? That's right, friends. There's an eight-lane snow tubing hill at Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, and it's the perfect way to slide into the holiday season. The best part? One ticket gets you unlimited rides all day long! If you never expected to find snow tubing in Texas, this seasonal adventure might just be your only way!

Please note: this is a seasonal event, so be sure and have it on your radar for when the 2022 holiday season comes around!

Staying at the Gaylord Texan Resort is a beloved holiday tradition for many North Texas families, and it's easy to see why.

The hotel transforms into a winter wonderland at Christmastime, with over two million lights and more than a dozen festive attractions for the whole family to enjoy.

Among the most popular activities is the eight-lane snow tubing hill, covered in real snow—yes, real snow, all the way down here in Texas.

Kids and kids at heart alike have a blast racing to the bottom. Nothing like a little healthy competition among friends and family!

The cost for snow tubing is per person (double-seater tubes are available for small children under 36 inches to ride with an adult.) Tickets must be purchased online in advance, and you can enjoy unlimited rides down the hill on your chosen date.

Keep the snow theme going with the build-your-own snowman and "Santa's Snow Throw" activities, the latter of which involves throwing snowballs at interactive targets designed by a group of mischievous elves.

Other holiday events at the resort include breakfast with the Elf on the Shelf characters, ice skating, Christmas-themed escape rooms, and two new additions: a pop-up experience featuring scenes from classic holiday films, and a walkthrough outdoor light display.

Visit the hotel's website or Facebook page to learn more about the snow tubing hill and other festive attractions, and/or purchase tickets for when the next holiday season comes around!
