Schlitrada - Sledge race Tschlin

«The joy and the urge of the youth for a festive experience are what conjure up the Schlitrada every year like a colourful, life-giving flower from the austere enamel of the Engadine winter,» is how the NZZ of 1951 described the festival. «I have been a part of it for at least 40 years,» Georg Janett from Tschlin recalls today. He and the Bun Tschlin association are happy to maintain this tradition. 

This year, the Valsoter Schlitrada will take place on Friday, 03 February 2023. The participants are nowadays not only single people, but everyone. The meeting point is just before 7 p.m. below Tschlin - and after registering, the sledge ride to Strada can already begin. Where a dumpling festival and the prize-giving ceremony await the participants and round off the event.  

Meeting point: 19.00, below Tschlin

Cost: CHF 15.00 - participant gift and dumpling included in the price

Bring along: Sledge, headlamp and warm clothing.

The start is at the stables of Andri Caviezel and Ernst Meier, below Tschlin.  After about 300 m, the toboggan run makes a sharp right turn and leads partly into the forest, partly past the edge of the forest. After 500 m in a south-westerly direction, the trail makes a left turn. Shortly afterwards, four smaller bends follow, which are in open terrain. And so it goes slowly but surely towards the end of the path, which is in front of the bus stop Strada i. E., Cuncalada. Be careful at high speed, the curves are narrow. 

Bun Tschlin bundles the unique forces of nature: the cool freshness of the mountain streams, the bright clarity of the alpine sky, the tangy scent of a mountain meadow. All these energies are stored in local natural products. The municipality of Valsot offers countless discoveries, hikes and sporting experiences.
