IN SWITZERLAND

Toboggan

GO LONG. Ready for RETRO FUN. Take your family or posse to Pradaschier - Europe's longest tobaggan run. Toboggan? Yeah. Toboggan. No skills but intense thrills. Load up the tribe and lift your feet. In seconds trees fly by and everything becomes a blur of fun as you 40km per hour. No roller-coaster comes close.
YEAR ROUND. The Pradaschier Toboggan Run is open in both summer and winter. A 6-person aerial cable car takes you up to the mountain station. The run sits on rails and is therefore independent of the weather and can be used year-round. Night owls may prefer to experience this singular sensation when it is open at night, illuminated by spotlights.
HOW TO GET THERE. Special round-trip: train ride Chur - Brambrsch, hike from Brambrsch to Pradaschier, use of the toboggan run 2 times, return to Chur by Swiss Post Bus. This is a guaranteed Switzerland must do.
