The facility uses high-density polymer materials for its track surface to mimic the friction levels of natural ice and snow.
The venue is specifically engineered to operate without needing sub-zero temperatures, distinguishing it from traditional winter-only ski resorts.
The location is integrated into the broader Gapyeong recreational corridor, which includes nearby camping and botanical park zones.
Gravity-fed mechanics are augmented by automated conveyor belts to handle the return transport of bulky rubber tubes.
Gapyeong Four Seasons Sledding Slope is an outdoor recreational facility designed for year-round tubing regardless of weather conditions. The venue features specialized synthetic tracks that allow for sliding during both snowy winter months and warmer seasons. It is situated in a mountainous area of Gapyeong, utilizing the natural terrain for its incline. The facility provides automated lift systems to transport visitors and their tubes back to the top of the slope. Safety barriers and designated landing zones are integrated into the course design to accommodate riders of various ages. It serves as a popular destination for families and groups looking for active outdoor entertainment in Gyeonggi-do.
From the top of the slope before descent to capture the expansive view of the surrounding Gyeonggi-do mountains.
Wear long pants and sleeves to prevent friction burns if you slide outside the tube or during the landing.
Bring a change of clothes if visiting during the warmer months, as the friction against the synthetic track can generate heat and moisture.
Check the official weather conditions prior to departure as heavy rain may result in temporary operational pauses for safety.
Avoid arriving during public holidays or weekends if you prefer to minimize wait times for the tubing lifts.
Operations are typically seasonal; closures occur during extreme weather events or maintenance periods.
Follow all staff instructions regarding the timing of the descent; do not attempt to walk back up the sliding track.
