Saddleback Ranch Yee-Haw Tubing Hill – Steamboat Springs

Saddleback Ranch Yee Haw Tubing Hill

Yee-Haw Tubing Hill at Saddleback Ranch offers several lanes of varying speed and slope. The runs are groomed and well-maintained. There is an easy tube-tow lift system to make tubing relatively effortless.

The scenery around Steamboat Springs and the ranch is spectacular. After your tubing session, you can head inside the lodge for refreshments like chili, nachos, hot drinks, and cold beer. The scenic, roughly fifteen-mile drive is worth the effort if you have a car. Free transportation is offered for tubers, who tube for 1½ hours.

After a few exciting days on the slopes, it’s time to put the skies away for a day. Saddleback Ranch’s Yee-Haw Tubing Hill is located about twenty minutes outside downtown Steamboat Springs.

There is only one place in town where you can snow tube: Saddleback Ranch, which is 13 miles from town. There’s a free shuttle that offers daily pick-ups in town for Saddleback Ranch and it’s well worth the trip.

YeeHaw Tubing Hill lies behind the lodge.

Steamboat had been having a slow winter so the whole tubing hill was not open. Despite that, we still had a lot of fun. With a running start or a push from a friend, you can get more than enough speed to get your adrenaline flowing!

Saddleback Ranch also offers winter horseback riding and snowmobile tours. You can even combine a sleigh ride and snow tubing.

In the summer ATV rides, horseback rides, cattle drives, and wagon dinner rides are available. Learn more about snowmobiling at Saddleback. And after tubing, another exciting activity in town is dog sledding.
