First, take the chairlift up to Horneggli. From there, the tobogganing fun begins. The challenging route runs over long stretches along the former red ski slope. From Haldisbärgli, the toboggan run is combined with the winter hiking trail Hornberg – Schönried. The route continues down to Wittere, where the toboggan run separates from the winter hiking trail. The route passes by Kuhstall and ends in Schönried. This toboggan run offers a great view of the surrounding villages and mountains. If you pay close attention, you can even admire the Gastlosen. Tobogganers can refresh themselves at the mountain hut near the mountain station or at Kuhstall shortly before the valley station.
