The last time people were able to go tubing at Afton Alps was in 2012. Now, after more than a decade, it’s back.

The ski resort in Hastings announced in a release that their new Bubly Tube Park will open this winter, which will have ten new tubing lanes overlooking the St. Croix River Valley, allowing visitors to take in the views.

After the previous tubing attraction was repurposed into the resort’s Landing Zone Terrain Park, construction of the new tube park began over the summer and is expected to be complete before the season begins.

“We’re thrilled to offer a new winter experience that’s perfect for family fun of all ages,” Trevor Maring, general manager of Afton Alps, said in the release. “With music, lights, and stunning views of the St. Croix Valley, it’s more than just tubing — it’s a celebration of winter.”

Afton Alps has not yet announced their official opening day.
