Tobogganing in the Harz Mountains
Race down the mountain on a sledge
Take yourself back to your childhood: do you remember how great it was to sledge down the mountain on a sledge or, if necessary, on a plastic bag? Children's hearts beat faster when tobogganing - and often those of adults too. Tobogganing is great fun for young and old alike. And this fun can be realised in the Oberharz.
