Winter in Iowa can be miserable, if you don’t find ways to have fun in the snow! Being cooped up inside just isn’t the Hawkeye way, but you’ve got to find something thrilling to make bundling up and fighting the cold worth it. Luckily, anyone living near Des Moines can head to the best winter park in Iowa, Sleepy Hollow Sports Park.
If you're looking for an amazing tubing adventure this winter, you can't go wrong at Sleepy Hollow Sports Park.
Sleepy Hollow's tubing hill is the best place to go sledding in Iowa. The rope lift means no walking up and down the hill, and the groomed lanes make flying down the hill a blast!
You can also rent Zipfy Sleds to go zooming around. These easy to use, lightweight sleds provide plenty of control for tight turns and speedy descents!
Boarders and skiiers will love hitting the slopes here any time there's powder on the ground. Exciting ski trails and a terrain park make Sleepy Hollow one of the most fun places in all of Iowa.
In addition to a terrain park, ski runs, and an impressive tubing hill, Sleepy Hollow Sports Park offers a unique way to fly down the hill - Stiga Snowracers! Check out these incredible, agile sleds in the video below:
