New, for example, is the Toboggan run from the Gaislachkogl middle station in Sölden. The ascent with the Gaislachkoglbahn I is possible with a valid ski pass, a tobogganing ticket or by means of a single ticket. Once a week it is illuminated in the evening and with a length of 7.3 km it is one of the longest toboggan runs in Austria. Also in Hochgurgl and Vent there is a toboggan run with lift assistance.
