Alpine Slide at Ober Gatlinburg

Alpine Slide at Ober Gatlinburg

A great idea for vacationing in Gatlinburg can be spent with your family or friends on the Alpine Slide at Ober Gatlinburg! A very popular thing to do in Gatlinburg TN, the Alpine Slide is something you need to do and most likely will never forget. Imagine bobsledding, but without the ice, snow, and cold. Remember the movie Cool Runnings? Well, that is almost exactly what it is like: the Jamaican bobsled team traveling down the hillside in the warm, comfortable weather. The only difference is that you won’t be able to ride with a partner due to safety regulations and you are not in the Olympics...you are in Gatlinburg Tennessee.

You will be so excited after you reach the bottom of the hill that you will want to go back up and do it again. The price is very inexpensive, so bring your whole family along with you. The ride combines a Scenic Chairlift ride up the mountain with a fun-filled weaving, wandering dipping descent on one of two 1800' tracks through woods and ski trails. What’s more exciting than that? You can even control your own speed with a braking device on each sled. If you’re gun hoe for speed, then don’t touch the brake on the way down. If you’re a little more careful, take the turns with a light touch of the brake to ensure your comfort and safety.

Accelerate or slow down as you ride down the mountain through curves, straight-aways, and hairpin turns into the valley. No special skills or clothing are needed. It’s only $5.00 per person to go down the Alpine Slide. Ages 6 and under are free but must ride with a ticketed adult age 18 or older. So, bring the family along to enjoy the sights, heights, and speed down the hillside of the Smoky Mountains. It’s something you shouldn’t miss while in Gatlinburg TN.
