Editing Beech Mountain, North Carolina (section)

=== Sledding and tubing ===
Beech Mountain is the only municipality in the southern United States to operate a free public sledding hill. Located across from the town hall building, the sled hill is open all winter long to children under the age of 12. The hill is no longer supervised during business hours, which roughly coincide with daylight. Patrons must bring their own sleds, which can be brought from home, rented or purchased at nearby merchants. Also, be prepared to pay hourly metered parking (the hill is a bit steep & long to walk with small children), card accepted.<ref>{{Cite web|url= https://beechmtn.com/beech-mountain-town-sledding-hill/ |access-date=January 20, 2022|title=Beech Mountain Town Sledding Hill|date=January 2, 2020}}</ref>

Beech Mountain Resort offers tubing, which users must purchase tickets in person for, only issued on the day of visit. Tubing tickets are sold in two hour blocks (times available based on weekday/weekend) but be aware that you actually get less because the tube lanes close at least 15 minutes prior to end of session. You can sign the waiver electronically online, which will save you time at the ticket booth.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.beechmountainresort.com/mountain/tubing/ |access-date=January 20, 2022|title=Tubing at Beech Mountain resort}}</ref>
