If you're looking for a family-friendly activity to do this winter, then you will absolutely love the snow tubing hill at Angel Fire Resort.
Located in the Rocky Mountains of northern New Mexico, Angel Fire Resort is home to some of the very best snow tubing in New Mexico
Measuring 1,000 feet in length, it features four lanes for frosty fun through the season.
Since tubing just involves speeding down the hill in a tube, it's one of the easiest activities the entire family can enjoy here.
Once you reach the bottom of the hill, you can take the magic carpet lift back up to the top so you can save your energy for all that sliding.
Tubing is offered in one-hour blocks between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily, weather permitting. You can also opt for sunset tubing, which takes place from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m.
If all that tubing makes you work up an appetite, stop by one of the resort's restaurants and cafes to warm up and enjoy a bite to eat.
Are you ready for an afternoon of snow-filled fun?
