Central Oregon Sledding Areas
Serving Bend, Black Butte Ranch, Culver, Crooked River Ranch, LaPine, Madras, Prineville, Redmond, Sisters, Sunriver, Tumalo & Warm Springs

Central Oregon's winter sports like skiing, snowmobiling, nordic skiing, and snowboarding get a lot of main stream attention in Bend and the surrounding areas.  Winter enthusiasts of all ages come from near and far to make a memory in the high desert.  A little less known but equally as fun, good sledding opportunities are here for the taking.

Do you own your tube or sled equipment and want a more freestyle less regulated experience?  Several locations in Central Oregon can accommodate your wishes to get out there a play with friends and family.

Bend Oregon Sledding - Wanoga SnoPlay Area

Wanoga Snoplay Sno-Park Area

Sunriver Oregon Sledding Areas

In and around Sunriver, adventurers can enjoy tubing hills at a couple of places:  

The first sledding area can be found near Sunriver Community Church on Theater Drive. 

The other tubing locations near Sunriver are just east of U.S. Highway 97 at the Sunriver exit - Forest Service Road 9720. Four-wheel drive vehicles are recommended for access on this gravel road due to varying weather and road conditions.

Prineville Oregon Sledding - Marks Creek
Sled Area

Marks Creek sled hill is a favorite among Prineville sledders.  This Central Oregon sledding hill is located 28 miles northeast of Prineville off of U.S. Highway 26.  All motorized vehicles are prohibited in this area of the Ochoco National Forest.

Sledding Safety Tips

Beware of obstacles, such as trees, rocks, shrubs and fences.
Always check before beginning descent for other sledders who may obstruct your path.
Scope out the entire sledding run, as the hill may end in a dangerous location.  Check for Snow coverage on your sledding route.  Without proper snow coverage sledders may stop short of the sledding run.
Understand how to stop the sled by turning sharply or dragging your feet.  Roll off the sled if you loose control.
Do not exceed the capacity of the sled gear.
On slick, hard-packed days use soft-bottom tubes. On
powder days use a hard-surfaced sledding equipment.

Types of Sledding equipment

  • Standard 4' plastic sled
  • Inflatable inner tube
  • Classic toboggan  (plastic or wooden)
  • Boogie board (plastic or foam)
  • Saucers or disks (plastic or metal)
  • Plastic snowboard-type sled
  •  Steerable sleds
  • (General price range from $5 to $50)
