(Macungie, PA – June 20, 2022) – Due to overwhelming demand, Slide the Slopes – one of the largest inflatable Slip ‘N Slide tubing courses, is returning to Bear Creek Mountain Resort in Macungie, PA from Thursday, July 7 through Sunday, August 14. Thrill-seekers of all ages should grab their swimsuits and flock to Bear Creek this summer and prepare to slide down one of the Lehigh Valley’s most prominent mountains.

Participants can enjoy a variety of courses of various lengths, soak up the sunshine, and spend time with friends and family this summer,” said Erin Visco, General Manager, Bear Creek Mountain Resort. “Our guests had such a great time sliding down Bear Creek and staying cool last summer, we just had to bring it back.”
