“Florida” and “snow” are rarely if ever, found in the same sentence. But that didn’t stop one business from bringing a much-needed winter wonderland to our sunshine state. Locals and tourists alike can now experience snow in Florida at Snowcat Ridge Alpine Snow Park, the first of its kind in the state! This “Real Snow, Real Fun!” snow park packs snowy slopes, arctic igloo’s, and an alpine village all less than 1.5 hours west of Walt Disney World®.

Snowy Slopes

Zoom at high speeds down a 60-foot tall, 400-foot long snow tubing hill at the Snowy Slopes, the main attraction at Snowcat Ridge. Riders can enjoy the attraction day or night in single, tandem, or family-style snow tubing during a 2-hour snow tubing session. Guests may also upgrade to the Unlimited Snow Tubing pass, great for all-day fun down the hill.

Alpine Village

Take a stroll through the Alpine Village offering a variety of food, drinks, wine, beer, and shopping. The Alpine Village offers comfortable picnic seating with views of the Snowy Slopes, great for enjoying a cup of cocoa while admiring the Snowy Slopes music & light show.

Arctic Igloo

Are you ready to play in REAL snow? Snowcat Ridge’s Arctic Igloo is the place to be for children and adults alike. Walk the little ones to their soon-to-be favorite spot at the bunny slopes. Or put on some gloves, pack together some snow, and create your own magical snowman. Guests have all-day access to Arctic Igloo and are recommended to dress warmly (preferably water-resistant materials) as temperatures hover around 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
