“Out of all the activities we booked for our trip to Interlaken, this one by far surprised us the most. We got picked up from our Hotel in Interlaken right on time by a lovely guide, who took us directly to Outdoor Interlaken (it was only about 5 minutes away...we could have walked!). We signed in and got straight into a mini bus and was driven up to collect our sleds and to get the gondola. It was pitch black and the views of the lights from the town below and the stars above were incredible. The sled run was so much fun! We didn't have headlights, but each sledder…”

Night sledding from Interlaken: cable car up, guided sled run down, stargazing in the Swiss Alps, plus round-trip transport.
“The guides are excellent — very attentive, patient, and supportive. There is an initial explanation on how to use the sled, and guides accompany and assist throughout the route. In my case, I even twisted my knee, and a guide supported me the entire time. There is absolutely nothing negative to say about the guides or their assistance. The concern is about the activity itself. Even with the basic training provided, the sled has no mechanical brake, control depends entirely on technique and coordination, and once the descent starts, it is not possible to stop or turn back — you must continue until the end. In addition, almost the entire…”

“Wow, what an experience. We did this on 13th April 2022 as a surprise for my boyfriends 30th. Our experience was a little different from what was described as we were the only ones booked on the tour they didn’t pick us up from interlaken we had to make our own way to grindwald to pick up our equipment from the shop there and was met by our instructor. It wasn’t hard to get to but unfortunately we didn’t receive the pick up which was meant to be included in the price so we had to pay more to get the train there. This was explained a few days prior…”
