On Fridays and Saturdays, you can experience night sledding at Niederhorn over a 3 km sledding slope illuminated by lanterns.
From Interlaken West, you take the post bus (line 101) at 5:05 PM to Beatenberg to the valley station of the Niederhornbahn. There, you take the mountain railway and ride via the medium station Vorsass up to the summit of Niederhorn.
You will get the sled at the mountain station Niederhorn. A headlamp and ski helmet are recommended. Headlamps can be purchased at the Niederhornbahn stations. You can rent a ski helmet in sports shops in Interlaken.
As long as the mountain railway is running, you can continuously go up and sled down again.
Dinner: Cheese Fondue (optional):
Optional, before sledding, you can enjoy a cheese fondue including mulled wine served in the Berghaus Niederhorn. This meal can be selected when booking.
With your rented sled, you will ride at night over illuminated paths from the mountain station (from the illuminated sign Niederhorn) to the medium station Vorsass. The descent takes about half an hour. You will descend 370 meters in elevation.
At the end, you return the rented sled and take the post bus back to Interlaken.
Practical Information:
- Suitable also for beginners and older children
- During opening hours, you can sled as often as you like and go back up.
