To get to the Berggeisthütte, the starting point of the toboggan run, we follow the winter hiking trail Berggeisthütte. Starting point is the parking lot Hammerbodenlift at the cable cars Weißbriach. Just below the valley station of the Hammerbodenlift the signposted forest path begins. In snow and ice it was not necessary to put on shoe spikes to ensure a safe ascent. After a walking time of about one hour we reach the Max Franz slope, which we only have to cross to get to the Berggeisthütte.
If you want, you can get some refreshment in the Berggeisthütte after the short hike.
With the toboggan we go back down into the valley via the illuminated toboggan run.
