Tobogganing in Vorarlberg
Fun in the snow
Select from countless sledging tracks or toboggan runs located throughout the Vorarlberg holiday region. Some tracks are even floodlit or illuminated by torchlight. The longest such track is the 5.5-km-long night-sledging track in St. Gallenkirch-Garfrescha in Montafon. Before sledging down, it is important to gather your courage and strength at one of the mountain huts or inns near the sledging tracks. Those without a sledge can rent one at many places.
Special Tip: In the Brandnertal there is a toboggan safari, which allows you to enjoy the snowy landscape and breathtaking views during between the fast descents. It leads from the top station of the Panoramabahn down to Bürserberg, back to the starting point by bus. On Tuesdays, an evening toboggan safari is organised, with participants sporting headlamps as they whizz down the trail. There is always a guide to accompany the party.
New tobogganing offer on the Oberlose at Bödele (Dornbirn):
With the BERGaufRODEL you can be pulled comfortably up the mountain with the Oberlose platter lift. A special device on the rental toboggan makes it possible to be pulled comfortably up the mountain using the drag lift. (Therefore, the pleasure is only possible with the rental toboggan, private toboggans are not suitable for lift transport). The ride on the lift is an experience in itself. Once at the top, you effortlessly release the handle and then whizz down the slope. Enjoy 200 m of tobogganing fun on the prepared toboggan run, rental toboggan included.
