Description

4.5 kilometres of toboggan run right next to the Lauberhorn run: here tobogganists are closer to the racers than anywhere else. On the sometimes challenging, carefully prepared track, they can ride just as tactically as these. Which is the smartest line? How can the momentum be better exploited? If you think smart as a fox on the Fox Run, you'll set the pace right after the start on the Wengernalp and finish with a shot at the Wengen train station. To get back up right away and make it even better on the next round.
