The Fideriser Heuberge offer winter fun without the hustle and bustle. Up to 2000 metres above sea level, guests can only reach the top with the ski area's minibuses. The route is closed to private traffic.Safe and harmless sledging is therefore (almost) always possible here between December and mid-March. During the bus closing time between 2.30 and 4 pm, the winding route down to Fideris village is only open to tobogganists.While at the very top of the mountain the altitude offers guaranteed snow, further down it is the skilful routing through shady slopes and light forest passages. This ensures that the toboggan run in high winter leads down to the village.You can find up-to-date information on the status of the sledge run on the website www.heuberge.ch.
