Abstract
The paper presents the new type of urban recreation-sporting venues such as snow tubing routes. The history of the most famous specialized snow parks in Europe and America is described. The Russian snow tubing routes in Gorokhovets, Samara and Moscow are described that are located in city parks and ski resorts. The creation of tubing objects on the natural and artificial reliefs and the technical specifications and construction materials required for the construction are also presented in this paper. Special attention is paid to the problem of vising these objects and factors that form the demand for them.
