Last year, Snowcat Ridge was shut down within its first month by the county because of multiple safety hazards, and on another occasion it voluntarily closed because of a lack of snow, but this week Florida’s snow park announced that it will make a triumphant return for the 2021 winter season.
The winter-themed park has since worked out the kinks, and says it will reopen on Nov. 10.
Besides the 400-foot-long snow tubing hill and a 10,000-square-foot Arctic Igloo indoor snow play area, Snowcat Ridge also says it is adding two new attractions — Crystal Ribbon, an outdoor ice skating area, and Eskimo Outpost, which consists of igloos visitors can rent for parties and events.
Tickets start at $29.95.
