What is the Fjellheisen toboggan run?
It’s a fun, fast evening activity where you ride a Stiga Snowracer down a 1 km slope with headlamps. The run has a vertical drop of 160 metres, and you can do as many laps as you like within one hour.
How long does the activity take?
Around 1 hour of tobogganing, and a total of 1.5–2 hours including lift rides and briefing.
How many times can I go?
As many as you want within the 1-hour tobogganing window.
Is this the same as the Top-to-Bottom run?
No. This is the shorter Fjellheisen evening activity (1 km).
If you want an even bigger experience, check out Top-to-Bottom Tobogganing: nearly 4 km and 630 vertical metres — one of Norway’s longest sledding runs.

When does it run during the season?
