The snow-covered Swiss Alps are beautiful during the day, but a unique magic unfolds at night. This is the special experience of Night Sledding—hurtling down the slopes guided only by starlight and headlamps in the darkness. We introduce this thrilling and romantic adventure that you absolutely must not miss during your winter trip to Switzerland.
Following the Slope Beneath a Starry Sky

Night sledding is conducted safely only on specific, illuminated slopes after the ski resort closes. As you glide down the Alps on your sled, you'll be treated to a fantastic view: a sky full of bright, pouring starlight overhead, and the sparkling lights of the villages below.
The Ultimate Thrill: It offers a different sense of speed and thrill compared to the daytime. The unpredictable glide experienced in the darkness stimulates adrenaline and a special sense of adventure.
A Romantic Ambiance: Before starting the ride, enjoying a warm fondue or Glühwein (mulled wine) at a mountain hut is an essential part of the experience. The sledding that follows this cozy break creates unforgettable romantic memories.
Recommended Spots and Usage Tips


In Switzerland, you can enjoy night sledding in various areas such as Grindelwald and Wengen. Notably, in some areas, the operating hours for gondolas or mountain railways are extended to facilitate access to the sledding slopes.
What to Bring: Make sure to prepare warm, waterproof, and windproof clothing, durable gloves, and the essential headlamp for safe enjoyment.
Booking: Night sledding operating periods and times are limited, and often run as a package including sled rental and meals. Therefore, it is highly recommended to book in advance to confirm your schedule before visiting.
Make your serene and thrilling winter night in the Swiss Alps special with a night sledding experience.
