How to Make the Most of Snowland Gramado’s Attractions?

Snowland Gramado has several attractions for you to have fun in the snow, from the most thrilling to the most playful. The park is divided into three main areas: the Snow Mountain, the Alpine Village, and the Snow School.

You can slide down the snow mountain with the family, go tubing on the artificial river, ice skate with special skates, play in the kids’ area with slides, toboggans, and swings, or watch the ice skating shows and the mountain parade.

In the Alpine Village, you can get a taste of European culture, with craft shops, typical cuisine, a snow carousel, and the kingdom’s castle. You can also ice skate on a traditional rink, located in front of the stage where the shows take place.

Snowland is Radical

At the Snow School, you can learn to practice snow sports like skiing and snowboarding with professional instructors and quality equipment. You can choose between individual or group lessons, depending on your skill level and preference.

To make the most of Snowland Gramado’s attractions, it’s important to follow some tips:

– Choose the best day to go. The park is open Monday through Friday, from 10 am to 5 pm, and on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, from 9 am to 6 pm. The attractions, however, run until 4:30 pm. The best days to visit are the ones with less crowds and shorter lines, like Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays.

To make the most of your day at Snowland, it’s essential to dress warmly. The temperature on the snow mountain can drop to -5 °C, even in the summer.

What’s Included in the Snowland Ticket

Your Snowland ticket includes a snow kit, consisting of pants, a jacket, gloves, and waterproof boots. However, it’s important to wear warm layers underneath, especially wool socks. Wool socks help keep your feet warm, which is essential to prevent hypothermia.

Additionally, it’s important to wear warm clothing for your body, such as a coat, pants, and a beanie. If you’re traveling with kids, make sure they’re also well bundled up. Children feel the cold more than adults, so it’s important to dress them in warm, comfortable clothes.

– Dress appropriately. The park provides free thermal clothing, but it’s recommended to wear a thermal base layer under your own clothes for extra comfort and freedom of movement.

There are a Few Rules to Enjoying the Snow

– Take advantage of special offers. The park has several special offers to make your trip more affordable and fun, such as discounts, giveaways, early access to parking, and the VIP area of the Alpine Village. To take advantage of these offers, you need to buy tickets online through the park’s official website or official app.

– Don’t forget the rules. The park is a safe and fun place for all visitors, but it’s important to follow the safety, hygiene, and conduct rules, which are available on the park’s official website and on informational signs throughout the venue.
