This sno-park located 5 miles east of Santiam Junction on Highway 126/20 offers access to the Pacific Crest Trail and one of only 2 tubing hills on the forest - the only recommended tubing & sledding hill in the Santiam Pass area. Facilities: * Restroom * Winter orientation sign
From McKenzie Bridge, OR, drive 38 miles northeast on Highway 126 to Santiam Pass. Turn left north onto Forest Road 893 to enter Santiam Sno-park.
Very fun park for sledding, for safety, be mindful of packed hard snow conditions on the hill.
Well 1 hill side with nice access is ok. Better for like cross country sking but very close to parking and the highway. Big parking lot and they do maintain it. Bathroom access was less than stellar. For a hole in the ground. Door blocked by 2 ft of snow.
Great Sno-Park with easy access right across from the entry to Hoodoo ski area. Sample parking even on a busy day and there are restrooms there too. A couple of different hill areas, one was pretty tall and steep for older kids and adults, and a less steep smaller incline perfect for younger kids. We had a great time there.
Always a family fun day! We were cold, wet, snow covered, and the wind was howling but man it was fun!
Absolutely love this park for sledding! What a fun hill with plenty of room to share. The views on a clear day are spectacular! Climbing to the top of the hill you can enjoy views of Hoodoo, the 3 Sister, Mt. Washington and 3 Fingered Jack. Spectacular star gazing opportunity too if you stay late enough. My new favorite place to visit this winter for sure!
