Sledding trail at Wiriehorn
Naturpark Diemtigtal - You can comfortably take the chairlift up the mountain, then the varied 5 km long sledding trail at Wiriehorn leads through forest and over fields back down into the valley.
The sledding trail at Wiriehorn is suitable for young and old. Families tend to take it easy, while advanced sledders like to gain speed or even use the fast branch path. Once you arrive down in the valley, the chairlift is already waiting for you and a new sledding route can begin. A full round including the chairlift ride takes about 45 minutes.

Safety advices
You control the speed yourself on the sled. Please always adjust it to your driving skills and sledding knowledge.
Signalization
At the mountain station of the chairlift at Nüegg, turn immediately right and follow the wide path to Untere Heiteren. The path here slopes gently and you have to pull your sled. But that doesn’t matter at all because you will be wonderfully warmed up for the following sledding fun. From Untere Heiteren it goes only downhill. Just always follow the sledding markings. The path continues through the wonderfully snow-covered mountain forest. About halfway there is the option to turn right and take the fast branch path for advanced sledders.
Shortly before the end of the sledding trail, you reach a populated area and cross a road that is occasionally used by cars. Before crossing, check by looking both ways that the path is really clear before continuing.
