The 6 km long sledge run leads from the Leiterli mountain station to the Hubelmatte in Pöschenried. For the return transport to the valley station of the Betelberg cable car, a shuttle bus runs (chargeable, adults CHF 5.-, children CHF 1.-).

The sledge run turns right shortly after Leiterli and runs the same way as the summer trotti route. Curve after curve, the path winds into Pöschenried. On the last section, there is occasional oncoming traffic (see map / warning sign is on the route). In Pöschenried you can choose: you can walk along the road into the village or take the sledge bus. Caution: The sledge bus only runs when the sledge run is open!
