4 tobogganing runs and a bobsleigh course offer an irresistible way of hurtling down into the valley. A pleasant evening spent in the alpine hut before setting off has certainly helped to boost people’s courage to do so!
During the daytime, whizzing down the slopes on two skids is brilliant fun – but an evening’s tobogganing has its own, very special charm. The tobogganing runs in the PillerseeTal all have floodlighting, so they can be used after sunset. But before you enter the snug surroundings of the alpine huts, you have to get up the mountain in the first place: sporty types will choose to climb, with the more leisurely-inclined opting to take a taxi. The latter service is available at some of the tobogganing runs.
