Now that we’ve had our first real snowstorm, it’s time to get outside and enjoy it. Remember the feeling and rush of going snow tubing down a big hill as a child? I would always look forward to tubing with my parents and sister. I love the idea of snow tubing because it doesn’t take much effort; you can sit back and enjoy the winter scenery. The winter months are harder for me at least, I try to find fun ways to embrace the cooler months. This outdoor activity can be an experience for just you, you and a friend or family member or a significant other.

I’ve made a list of local snow tubing spots that you can visit. Grab your warm gear and boots and head on out to enjoy the beauty of winter here in the Hudson Valley. Don’t forget to take some beautiful pictures, we would love to see.
