On your marks, get set, go! Tobogganing in the Wildkogel Arena
Your holiday in Austria’s mountains will be great fun!
Tobogganing makes life wonderful – in the most enjoyable way winter has to offer. When the wind brings a gentle tingle to your skin, the snow crunches beneath the runners and you sweep through the next bend with gusto, you feel wonderfully fulfilled and utterly happy – a bit like you did back when you were a child. Whether during the day in the sun or at night under the starry sky: on Austria’s longest toboggan run in the Wildkogel Arena, or directly on our own Kühnreit toboggan run behind the hotel, the flow is always within reach. What tremendous fun!

How to have a tobogganing holiday in Austria's mountains
The Wildkogel Arena is not only a particularly family-friendly ski area, but also home to the world’s longest illuminated toboggan run. You start at the Smaragd lift mountain station, then it’s 14 kilometres and 1,300 vertical metres down to Bramberg. A descent easily takes 30 to 50 minutes – along the route, cosy huts, hot drinks and the region's most beautiful winter panorama await.
Awarded the International Toboggan Run Seal of Quality in double gold, it is an absolute highlight for your tobogganing holiday in Austria – whether alone, as a couple or with the family.
