Fun and winter go hand-in-hand, and we have some pretty cool day trip destinations – from Seven Springs to Hidden Valley Ski Resort – to escape during the coldest months of the year. If fast-paced excitement and zipping down a massive hill on a snow tube all day long is your idea of fun, start planning your day or evening at Avalanche Xpress near Pittsburgh.
Bundle up for a winter adventure at Avalanche Xpress, a snow tubing park at Whispering Pines Golf Course in Meadville, just under an hour and a half from downtown Pittsburgh.
The family-friendly snow tubing park has no age restrictions or height restrictions, making it the perfect winter destination for adults and kiddos of all ages.
Just be prepared for the fast-paced excitement that awaits as you zip down the seven-story tall hill that measures 900 feet of pure, adrenaline-pumping fun.
Good news, too, because you can catch your breath as the lift slowly takes you back to the top of the hill after each run. Avalanche Xpress boasts six lanes, making it easy to go down over and over.
Cozy up by the fireplace before heading back outdoors, or rent one of the outdoor igloos. Rentals are available by the hour and must be reserved ahead of time.
