First, you hike up with the Snocc (sledding sled) over 450 meters of altitude. But after work, the pleasure! Then you quickly go back down via the M-shaped path. The sledding path in Täsch is very popular among locals. Stunning view from the chapel Täschberg down to Täsch at Eggstadel view of the Matterhorn
