Snow Tubing in Upper Michigan at Ski Brule
Snow Tubing Fun for the Whole Family!
If you love sledding, you’ll love snow tubing at Ski Brule! It’s fast, easy and one of the most fun ways for families to enjoy winter together in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
Grab a tube, head up the hill and get ready for the ride down. No skiing or snowboarding experience is necessary—just bring your sense of adventure!
Ski Brule offers two snow tubing experiences: Whitewater Snow Tubing Park and Homestead Snow Tubing. From lift-served tubing during the ski day to old-fashioned hike-up tubing at Homestead Lodge, there’s another way to enjoy the snow at Ski Brule.
Bundle up. Grab a tube. And get ready for some serious family fun!
Ride Up. Tube Down. Do It Again!
Whitewater Snow Tubing Park is a great addition to your family’s day at Ski Brule.
Located between the Otterslide and Whitewater trails, Whitewater features a rope tow to help tubers get back up the hill. Tubes are provided, so all you need to do is grab your tube, ride up and enjoy the trip back down!
