Winter excursion

Tobogganing fun from Oeschinensee to Kandersteg

Kandersteg/Kiental Tobogganing Fun

The most terrific tobogganing runs in the Bernese Oberland

Whether a gentle toboggan run from Ramslauenen to Kiental or a high speed descent from Oeschinensee to Kandersteg – you’ll be spoilt for choice. Both toboggan runs lead through fascinating winter scenery, surrounded by high, snow-covered mountain peaks. Take advantage of the easy accessibility on the Lötschberger train and allow yourself to be spoilt in the cosy mountain restaurants. Enjoy a break in the enchanting winter landscape, far away from
the hustle and bustle.
Tip: those arriving by public transport benefit from a 10% discount on the all-day tobogganing pass.
