Sledge run

12 km of sledge fun

The longest sledge track in Switzerland

Free Road

Between 14:30 - 16:00 there are no buses from Fideris to the Heuberge. Closing time for the buses means a free run on the sledge track!

Night sledging

Night sledging on the longest track in Switzerland. Follow the beam of your headlamp on the glistening snow down into the valley.

Full moon sledging

It becomes especially magical when the full moon illuminates the night. Then the snow in the moonlight glows so much that hardly any lamp is needed!

Home

Sledge run

From the mountain lodges Arflina and Heuberge, the path leads over 1100 metres of altitude difference on a winding route into the valley and promises an unforgettable experience for young and old.

In the following sections you will find all details about sledging in the Heubergen.

Ascents in the winter season

In the 2022/23 winter season, buses will run from 24.12.22 until the end of the season.

During the winter, the journey can only be done by the buses of Heuberge AG, not with your own vehicle.

The buses of Heuberge AG from Jenaz and Küblis always run only on advance notification by telephone, if possible!

Otherwise, for trips to Fideris, please note the bus timetable of the Swiss Postbuses.

Rent a sledge

Sleds can be rented from us at the Berghaus Arflina. We offer modern, comfortable sleds. The sleds can be paid directly at the ski room.

Own sleds

Of course you can also bring your own sledges. These will be transported to the Heuberge by bus and then handed over to you by the chauffeurs.

Please keep an eye on your sleds. In the evening we recommend that you secure your sled with a bicycle lock.

Return

After the tobogganing fun, the sledges are returned to the Kassahaus at the sawmill in Fideris.

Start

The two mountain houses Arflina and Heuberge are the starting points for the sledge run.

After a refreshment in one of the two mountain houses, or directly after the bus ride, the sledges can be rented in the ski room of the Arflina or from the service staff of the Berghaus Heuberge.

Destination

The valley station for our buses is located at the sawmill area in Fideris. It is the starting and end point for the sledging experience in the Heuberge.

There is a large parking lot just below the bus station. There our guests can park their cars.

At the ticket office you can pay for the ascents and the day passes for sledging. Our staff will be happy to answer any other questions.

Next to the cash desk is the sledge return.

Sledding without oncoming traffic

From 14.30-16.00 hours is closing time.

Only between 14.30 and 16.00 hrs there are no buses on the sledge run from the sawmill to Heuberge. During this time, tobogganing is possible without buses in oncoming traffic. However, you should always expect buses going downhill. We recommend families with small children to sledge during this closed period. Between the Berghaus Arflina and Heuberge you must always count on buses. Please use the path marked “Schlittelweg” and not the road!

Outside of the closing time, oncoming traffic must always be expected.

Sledging in the moonlight – especially beautiful at full moon.

An experience of a very special kind! At full moon, the light of the moon is usually enough to illuminate the entire sled run together with the surrounding snow. Headlamps are nevertheless recommended for safety reasons.

Sledging at night is especially recommended in combination with a fondue. Table reservations for the à la carte menu are also possible.

Information at a glance

Night sledging is possible every day with a minimum of 6 people (can also belong to different groups).
Advance booking is required for the ascent.
The demand on weekends for tobogganing with fondue fun is very high, so it is advisable to reserve the tables as early as possible.
Please always inform us of any changes to your plans in good time!

Security

Sledding is a wonderful leisure activity, but like any other winter sport it involves certain risks.

We therefore ask you to pay attention to the following:

We recommend our guests to wear helmets
Except during the closing time, you should always expect buses in oncoming traffic. Therefore always drive carefully!
Sledging with smaller children during the blocked period(See blocking time)
The blocking period does not give you a green light to go full throttle. Drive carefully and with common sense even during the blocking period. Be considerate of others and drive slowly, especially in confusing areas.
During sledding outside the closing period, watch out for buses in oncoming traffic.
Drive at night with headlamps (these can be obtained if necessary in the ski room of the Arflina, or restaurant Heuberge)
Pay attention to the runway signals
Please note the Sledging rules of the bfu.
