Solarbob: sledging fun all year round. Over one thousand nail-biting metres of track awaits you: Solarbob is the only sledging run to combine fun and ecology: you are pulled up by a lift powered by the energy of the sun. But don't worry, you can still use the Solarbob, even if the sun isn't shining. An unforgettable experience.

The Solarbob wants to let you have fun and enjoy life, but it also wants to be the world’s first bobsled run, which is operated in a carbon-neutral manner. A photovoltaic process based on the limitless energy of the sun creates the power necessary to pull the bob up. The sun as the center of the planetary system and eternal life force helps us achieve this. .

Powered by solar energy, one or two people sitting in the bob can comfortable ascend the mountain by lift. Without having to change bobs, you make an exciting and fast descent. You can control the speed yourself by using a lever. You decide if you want to swoosh down at top speed or just roll down the run.

Access:
From Basel by train and bus to Langenbruck/Unterdorf in an hour, transfer in Liestal to Waldenburg’s narrow gauge railroad, and in Waldenburg take the PostBus (Postauto); the Solarbob is is only one hundred meters from the PostBus stop. By car via the Liestal Valley and over the Upper Hauenstein (Pass) in 45 minute to Langenbruck.
