The tour

We bet you've never tobogganed like this before! On a historical wooden sledge with space for 6 people, which was formerly used for transporting hay, you can now enjoy the curves of the 5 km long sleigh track at the Schaupphof in Donnersbachwald.

But before that, a tractor will take you up to the starting point in a comfortable way. After a short instruction by the hand sleigh driver, you can take a seat, put your feet up, hold on tight and dive in hard. By the way, the sledge stops directly in front of the Rossstallbar, which invites you to a cosy stop.
