Tahoe Donner Snowplay: Family Sledding, Tubing & Snow Play Hill

About this adventure

Located just 5 minutes off Interstate 80 in Truckee (~3 hours from the Bay Area), Tahoe Donner Snowplay provides a relaxed, family-centric snow hill monitored by helpful staff attendants. The facility features banked tubing and sledding runs, gentle beginner lanes, and an open snow-play area where children can build snow forts and snowmen surrounded by towering snow-draped pines. All sledding tubes and plastic saucers are included with your 75-minute timed session pass—no need to lug heavy sleds up from the city. Families can gather around outdoor fire pits to toast s'mores and sip hot cocoa from the on-site food truck, and heated indoor restrooms are conveniently adjacent to the hill. Online reservations are required via ShopTD up to 7 days in advance to ensure safe, low-density crowds.
