    From the mountain station of the Bettmeralp cable car, walk westwards for about 25 minutes to the valley station of the Moosfluh combi glacier cable car. The gondola will take you in a few minutes up to the Moosfluh viewpoint – a fantastic vantage point with views of the Great Aletsch Glacier and simultaneously the start of the sledging path. On this, you sledge via «Scheene Bodu» and Bettmersee back to Bettmeralp. Constant companion on the fast sledging ride: the dream view of the Valais mountains. Note: sledges can be rented at local sports shops.

    You can check whether the sledging piste is open at any time in the status report.
