Tobogganing at Hörnle Bad KohlgrubPhoto: Simon Bauer, Ammergauer Alpen GmbH
Beautiful, daily groomed sledding run from Hörnle down to the valley at Bad Kohlgrub. The run is 4.5 km long. The ascent is possible via the Hörnlebahn (chairlift) or on foot (2.5 km and 500 meters elevation). Those who do not own their own sled can rent one at the valley station without prior reservation (about 140 sleds are available) for a fee.
The Hörnle is the local mountain of Bad Kohlgrub and lies at the "entrance" to the Naturpark Ammergauer Alpen. Therefore, the ascent offers magnificent views out over the Alpine foothills. After a refreshment at the Hörnlehütte, enjoy a fast sled run back down to the valley.
Current conditions can be found on the Hörnle cable car website https://www.hoernlebahn.de/aktuelles

Please respect existing wildlife quiet zones and avoid the time between dusk and dawn, as wildlife is especially sensitive to disturbances during these times.
Author’s recommendation
To avoid getting too cold during the approximately 20-minute ride on the open chairlift, it is recommended to wrap one of the blankets around your hips, which are available in a large box at the valley station. At the top, another box is available for putting down the blanket.

Tips and suggestions
Roadbook
The ascent on foot follows the summer hiking trail up to the (Vordere) Hörnle. This trail is also easily walkable in winter except after extreme fresh snow and is better than the forest road, where you will encounter sledders coming down.
However, the easiest and most comfortable way up is with the Hörnle cable car. That way, the descent is even more fun, and there might even be time for additional runs.
