An alpine slide is a long chute on the side of a hill, usually built by ski resorts to supplement summer income. A wheeled cart is used to navigate the slide.

Some examples of alpine slides in the United States are in Purgatory, Colorado and in Barlett, New Hampshire at Attitash ski resort. The slide at Attitash is 8/10 of a mile in length.
