01/ Overview
The route
The toboggan run from Sparenmoos to Heimchueweid takes you across meadows and then through forests, starting off level and then becoming an bit steeper and winding. On the first part of the toboggan run you have continual views of the Simmental valley.
The four-kilometre descent begins at the Zweisimmen, Sparenmoos bus stop. Just a few steps from the public transport stop, the route sets off amid open meadows and pastures. Shortly after the start, the highest point is reached near Schiltenegg at around 1,660 m. From there, the sledging trail leads almost continuously downhill.
The descent soon follows the Beretgrabe for just over two kilometres. The stream thus accompanies much of the route, while the open terrain affords views in the direction of travel. Overall, the route descends around 340 metres. After the middle section shaped by the gully, the run continues across open ground. Towards the end, the sledging trail reaches Heimchueweid above Zweisimmen. The Zweisimmen, Heimchueweid bus stop is located directly at the finish.
