Tunnel Tube Chute

Tunnel Tube Chute
You can begin your ride on the Tunnel Tube Chute one of three ways: either as a continuation of the Cliffhanger or Raging River Tube Chutes or by entering near the Arcade Building. Both the Cliffhanger and the Raging River connect with the headwaters of the Tunnel Tube Chute affording riders on those attractions the ability to join the Tunnel Tube Chute without ever having to get out of the water.
True to its name, the Tunnel Tube Chute passes through two tunnels as it winds its way through the resort portion of Schlitterbahn West. The ride blends a lazy float with rapids and a final twisting plunge into the Comal River. At that point riders can exit or continue floating along the Comal River until it flows into the River Tube Chute.
