The sledding trail is open every day and illuminated at night. The starting point is comfortably reachable by the local bus. Take the night express leaving from the post square in the evening.

The sledding trail from Prätschli all the way down to the Obersee lake is open every day and thanks to floodlights also at night. The track is located centrally and thanks to the local bus easily reachable. Besides, there is an option to take the bus to the Untersee lake and keep riding until Litzirüti. The trail has some sharp turns and is relatively steep.

Author’s recommendation

After the toboggan ride, stop at the Güterschuppen restaurant right next to the station.
