While visiting Ober Gatlinburg during your Smoky Mountain vacation, don’t miss the chance to try the Ice Bumper Cars! This unique spin on the classic bumper car attraction moves the action to the ice as you zoom around in an attempt to smash into your family and friends! It is just as fun as it sounds, so bring the whole gang along for this awesome ride! Here are the top 4 reasons why you’ll want to ride the Ice Bumper Cars at Ober Gatlinburg:
1. Fun for All Ages
The Ice Bumper Cars at Ober Gatlinburg are fun for all ages, so challenge your kids to some serious bumper car competition! Everyone in the family will be laughing hysterically as you bump into each other and glide across the ice! Just keep in mind that kids must be at least 3 years old and 36 inches tall to ride, while kids riding alone must be at least 7 years old (ages 3 to 6 must ride with an adult).
2. Easy to Operate
The round colorful tubes have wheels and their own motor, so you’ll have no problem cruising around on the ice with ease! The controls are actually a bit like playing a video game, so you can choose to glide around on the ice or crash into your buddies in true bumper car form! Each session includes a short orientation on the operation, so you’ll have time to get used to the controls before the bumper car action begins!
3. Cool Summertime Activity
Another reason why you’ll want to ride the Ice Bumper Cars at Ober Gatlinburg is because they offer an excellent opportunity to beat the heat during the summer months! The attraction is situated on about 1/3 of Ober Gatlinburg’s indoor ice skating rink, so you never have to worry about breaking a sweat! While the Ice Bumper Cars are in operation for the majority of the year, note that they may be closed during winter holiday and peak periods.
4. Affordable Pricing
The Ice Bumper Cars are an affordable option for the whole family, and kids ages 3 and 4 are FREE with a paying adult! While you can purchase individual tickets for this attraction, the best deal is the Premium Wristband at Ober Gatlinburg! This wristband not only includes the Ice Bumper Cars, but many of Ober Gatlinburg’s other premier attractions such as the Scenic Chairlift, Alpine Slide, Wildlife Encounter and the Ski Mountain Coaster!
