01/ Overview

The route

This varied run crosses fields and zigzags through forests from the Mostelberg mountain station down to Sattel. Night sledging is available on Saturdays. The world's first revolving gondola takes guests to the starting point.

At the Mostelberg mountain station, the descent begins at its highest point, 1,180 m above sea level, near Engelstock. The Sattel Mostelberg (Bergstat.) stop is right beside the start. From here, the route heads directly downhill. At first, the toboggan run descends through open terrain before increasingly entering the forest.

Over its roughly two kilometres, the route loses around 400 metres in elevation. After the open upper section comes the longer, tree-lined stretch towards Sattel. The descent continues steadily downhill, reaching the edge of the built-up area only towards the end. After just under half an hour, the Sattel (Talstat. Hochstuckli) stop lies right beside the finish at the Mostelberg valley station.

03/ Conditions

Current conditions

What to know before you set off. Closures and snow are re-checked every day.

  • How we check: Every night we match the route against the official closures and detours from the Federal Roads Office (FEDRO). Any reported closure that touches the route shows up here.

  • How we check: We look up a live public transport connection from your starting point to the stop closest to the trailhead. If it ends further away, the nearest stop may be a cable car or bus that isn't running right now.

  • Sledding is more fun in the snow! Check local conditions before heading out.

    How we check: Snow depth estimated daily at the lowest and the highest point of the route. Estimates: check the situation on site.
