Selected alternatives for you

Where scooters speed down in summer, the snow turns the road into a sledding run in winter. A spectacular ride, heading straight towards Lake Walen. Those who prefer it more leisurely might discover the Talalpsee nestled and snow-covered between the mountain flanks. If that’s not enough action, only a ride on the new e-bobslas will do.

The sled run is almost seven kilometers long and leads through snow-covered forests, with fantastic views of the mountains and Lake Walen. Known as a classic among connoisseurs, it is especially popular with families.

Different sled types can be rented at the mountain station. This sled run is suitable for children of all ages.

Author’s recommendation

Night sledding – Swiftly on runners through the enchanting winter landscape. On Saturday evenings from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm, the sled run and mountain railway are in operation. The mountain inn (open until midnight) serves a fine "alp herb fondue" or raclette on order before the last sledding trip – hut magic included. The sled run is not illuminated, but headlamps can be rented for CHF 5.–.

The e-bobsla is a kind of go-kart with electric caterpillar drive. Despite a low speed of up to 30 km/h, the low seating position and icy temperatures can give a rush of speed. Bobslas are easy to drive and a lot of fun.
