A valid Epic Pass or scenic gondola ticket for the day is required on top of the tubing ticket. With an Epic Pass, or scenic gondola ticket, it costs $19 per person for one run, or $49 per person for three runs. Without an Epic pass or scenic gondola ticket, it costs $34 for a child (4-12) for one run or $64 for three runs. For an adult (13+), it costs $54 for one run or $84 for three runs. Tubing will be available as long as the snow lasts, and the resort aims to keep it open until at least the end of August.
As soon as the snow melts away, Keystone opens up again for summer. The resort offers a plethora of summer activities, which include golf, scenic gondola rides, mountain-top yoga, and more. There is also a downhill mountain bike park, which is offered on multiple different trails, accessed from the River Run Gondola and Summit Express lifts.
