In the Schnalstal Valley, the mountain carts at Lazaun await adventurers of all ages. First, you take a leisurely ride up on the cable car—and then begins a thrilling descent where nature, fun, and a little thrill go hand in hand.
First, take the cable car up
The outing gets off to a leisurely start with a cable car ride to the Lazaun Alm. Once you reach the top, the mountain carts are already waiting for you. After a brief orientation and once you’ve put on your helmet, the adventure can begin.
Downhill, curve by curve
The ride back down into the valley follows a forest trail about four kilometers long. Sometimes a bit faster, sometimes at a leisurely pace—everyone rides at their own speed. The many curves and the view of the surrounding mountains make the descent a special experience.
For every pace
The route follows a wide forest road with plenty of curves and ample space. Everyone decides for themselves how fast to go downhill. This way, both cautious riders and those who love a bit of speed get what they’re looking for.
A highlight for older children
Riding uphill together, zooming down into the valley together, and then arriving back with big grins on your faces—those are exactly the kinds of experiences that stick in your memory. For families with older children, the Mountaincart ride at Lazaun is an outing that beautifully combines action, nature, and quality time together.
