Snow tubing involves sliding down prepared snowy slopes on large inflatable rings. Riders sit back and let gravity do the work, making it a popular winter activity for families and groups who want something fun and accessible without the techniques required for skiing or snowboarding.
ActivitySure can cover snow tubing on an amateur, non-professional basis when you are taking part abroad, provided the activity meets the policy conditions. Although it is usually offered in controlled resort areas, snow tubing still involves speed, shared runs and hard-packed snow, which means injuries can happen if things go wrong.

Destination Insight
Snow tubing is widely available at ski resorts across Canada, where purpose-built tubing parks are designed to cater for a wide range of ages. These areas often feature groomed lanes, safety barriers and lift systems that return riders to the top of the slope. The activity is also common in the United States, particularly at family-focused resorts with dedicated tubing hills separate from ski pistes. In Austria, many alpine resorts offer snow tubing as a casual alternative to skiing, with clearly marked runs and on-site supervision.
Snow tubing is typically taken part in within designated resort zones rather than on open mountain terrain.
Even on managed slopes, snow tubing involves travelling downhill at speed on icy surfaces. Falls, collisions or awkward landings can lead to bruises, sprains or more serious injuries requiring medical treatment. Having appropriate travel insurance in place helps protect you financially if you need medical care or assistance while snow tubing abroad.
