Chicopee Tube Park
A fun afternoon on the slopes!
February 16, 2020
A little snow, a few pals and a BIG hill!
It’s winter in Canada! Don’t let that stop you from getting out into the great outdoors. In fact- why not bundle up and come join us to see what the beauty of winter has to offer?
Tubing has become a popular activity in the snowy north and here at ActiveDays we’re excited to test it out! This half day excursion takes us to Chicopee Tube Park where they specialize in fun.
The day starts out in Toronto where folks hop aboard a school bus. We’ll have a fun 1.25hr ride to the park (Located in Kitchener, ON) and pick up our lift passes upon arrival. You have 2 full hours to ride the slopes and a bit of time before the bus comes to have lunch in the lounge. There is a cafe on site to purchase simple, hot food and drinks. We recommend bringing some cards or a board game in case you’ve had enough tubing and have a bit of spare time before the bus comes.
Ticket includes transportation to and from the park and a lift ticket for 2 hours of tubing.
All of our winter trips are weather dependent. If the park is closed due to weather, the trip will be cancelled and tickets refunded.
