  Use the sleigh ride as a sightseeing tour. The sleigh ride tours in Ischgl go from the town center to the neighboring town Mathon. At a comfortable pace, you can lean back in the upholstered bench and you finally have enough time to marvel at the snow-covered landscape of Paznaun.

  During the stop at the original town Mathon, you have the opportunity to visit the historical farm museum (open from 4 p.m. if the weather is nice), Niki's ranch or the rustic restaurant Glöckner for a hearty meal. Newly strengthened, you then return to Ischgl with the sleigh. This wonderful sleigh ride takes about a total of two hours.
