On your sledges, get set, go! Tobogganing in the Wildkogel Arena, Salzburger Land
Your tobogganing holiday will be great fun!
Tobogganing makes life fun – in the most enjoyable way winter has to offer. When the wind creates a gentle tingling sensation on your skin, the snow crunches under your runners and you take the next bend with momentum, you feel wonderfully fulfilled and completely happy – a bit like 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 fun!

Between curve fun and mountain hut magic
This is how tobogganing holidays work in Austria's mountains
The Wildkogel Arena is not only a particularly family-friendly ski resort, but also home to the longest illuminated toboggan run in the world. The run starts at the Smaragdbahn mountain station in the Wildkogel Arena and continues for 14 kilometres and 1,300 metres in altitude down to Bramberg. A descent takes a good 30 to 50 minutes, and there are cosy places to stop for refreshments along the way – perfect for a short break with hot tea, Kaiserschmarrn or a hearty evening in a mountain hut.
Awarded double gold in the International Luge Track Quality Seal, it is an absolute highlight for your tobogganing holiday in Austria.
