Unfortunately, dogs have to stay at home whilst we’re out tobogganing.

The risk of them getting into an accident is too high.

can find their contact details >here<

Of course, you are welcome to use our toboggan runs with your own sledge

The toboggan run is NOT a hiking trail and is always very busy. We therefore do not recommend walking along the toboggan run.

The mountain restaurants and huts are also keen to treat you to some delicious food. A cold or hot drink or two will make your evening tobogganing even more fun 😉.

Bad weather, avalanche risk, unforeseen departure, operational disruptions, partial or complete closure of slopes or facilities, or closures ordered by the authorities, etc., do not entitle the holder to a refund or extension of the ski pass.

A refund can only be granted in the event of an accident or illness. The medical certificate and the ski pass must be handed in at the ticket office immediately.

It is not possible to exchange the pass for another one at a later date, or to extend or postpone its validity.

Ski passes are non-transferable.
