Naar de rodelbanen van Zuid-Tirol

Sledging in the Upper Venosta Valley, has a long tradition especially in Watles and is one of the most popular recreational sports for families and enthusiasts. The 4km-long Watles natural tobogganing route of the winter sport area is one of the most beautiful runs in the South Tyrol, which can be reached by chairlift. Active holidaymakers can also reach it by foot in approximately 1.5 hours. There are several family-friendly resting places at the valley and mountain station.

Sledge rental directly at the mountain station of the chairlift

Race track starting at Sunnolm. The natural toboggan run is 700 m long and ends in the toboggan run "Reinswalder Wiesn".

The Speikboden ski area is a place with great variety – above all else when it comes to what is available in the way of activities. It is not just skiing and snowboarding that are the order of the day, but also sledding, a winter sport with a huge fun factor that is very popular especially with families and children. In this ski area, there are two sled runs at once, one of which can boast the distinction of being the longest sled run in all South Tyrol-Südtirol. The starting point of both sled runs is located at the mountain terminal which can be reached without any problems with the Speikboden cable car.

With a length of 10 km (6.2 miles), sledders leisurely head down a very well-groomed sled run – which can even be covered with man-made snow, if necessary – all the way to Lutago-Luttach. The second sled run, which is just as wide with a total length of 8 km (5 miles) has the same starting point, but after a couple of miles it turns off toward Rio Bianco-Weißenbach. From either of the destinations, sledders can be picked up again by the ski bus or public bus and taken back to the valley terminal to head up again. 
Also particularly popular is the weekly Rodelgaudisledding party, a sledding event that is open to everyone.

The toboggan run from Tschantschenon starts in the middle of the wintry and snow-covered wood at 1800 meter and leads over a flat track with just a few curves to Zanser Schwaige (opening times from 25th december). A wonderful excursion.

The Allriss toboggan run is located at the end of the beautiful Pflerschtal valley and stretches over 3.1 km from the hut Allriss Alm down to the parking lot above St. Anton. With its gentle slope, it is especially suitable for families with children, as it is not very challenging. You will need to bring your own toboggan, but a stop at the cozy hut Allriss Alm invites you to take a break after the one-hour climb and enjoy local and traditional delicacies. Perfect for a fun day in the heart of nature!

With a length of over 9 km, the RudiRun 9.0, one of the longest toboggan slopes in South Tyrol, offers the ultimate fun for the whole family. The purely natural toboggan slope starts near the mountain station of the Plose cable car and leads over 1,000 vertical meters to the valley station. New: the RudiRun 4.0 variant leads to the middle station of the Plose gondola lift. From there, the cable car takes you back to the start in comfort.
