Summer toboggan runs are most of the times located in skiing and hiking areas, which allows you to use lift for ascending. The bobs offer security belts for both kids and adults and everybody can control his or her own speed thanks to individual brakes with a maximum speed of 40 km/h.
Thanks to multiple protection, summer tobogganing is a safe adventure for the whole family. Depending on the operator, kids from about 3 years can use the toboggan runs together with an adult, from 7-10 years they can drive the bobs by themselves.
