Sledging

A sledging trip could not be more varied than the 13-kilometre route from the Eigergletscher station to Grindelwald. One moment you are fascinated by the view of the Bernese Alps, the next by the mighty north face of the Eiger. Leisurely forest passages alternate with gradients of up to 36 per cent. Everyone will get their money’s worth.

Männlichen not only offers impressive views, but also a fast-paced toboggan run on Rita’s Speedway. The tour starts at the mountain station. The route then leads over 1,000 metres to the Holenstein middle station. A fantastic view of the mountain range from the Eiger to the Wetterhorn is always with you.

The Lauberhorn downhill is one of the most demanding downhill races. The 4.5-kilometre toboggan run right next to it is also challenging and just as well prepared. If you’re as tactically astute as a fox on the Fox Run, you’ll really step on the gas after the start on Wengernalp and cross the finish line at Wengen station at high speed.

Even by day, the Jungfrau Eiger Run is a very special tobogganing experience. It is even more spectacular to take the illuminated route from Alpiglen to Brandegg under your fast wheels at night. And after 3.5 kilometres to recharge your batteries over a fondue and race down the course again.

The toboggan run from Grindelwald-First via Schreckfeld to Bort is a real challenge. On the first section to Schreckfeld parallel to the ski slope, the route alternates between steep and less steep passages. The second part begins at a rather leisurely pace, but then leads into a fast final ride to Bort station.
