Snow Rafting in Switzerland
Snow Rafting in Switzerland
This winter event combines spectacular runs in deep snow with snow shoe walks and team competitions with socialising in a relaxed atmosphere around hot punch. An action-packed idea for a winter event in the mountains.
Procedure
Your group is divided up into teams of five people. Two teams share a large inflatable boat between them. At any time one half of the participants is doing dinghy runs and the other half is building a snow bar. As the teams pull their inflatable up the hill in their snow shoes a short break is most welcome after each run.
Requirements
This group event is slightly sporty (not athletic). Thanks to the frequent breaks at the snow bar with hot punch, the task is easily manageable for everybody.
Additional Options
- The snowcat grooms a private run for us. (only available in Wildhaus, a surcharge applies)
- Pumping up the inflatables as a competition (no surcharge)
- Create your own team banner and attach it to the dinghy (surcharge).
- The rubber dinghies are pulled back up by snowmobiles (only available in Wildhaus, a surcharge applies)
- Toboggan run downhill in Wildhaus (surcharge)
- Combinations with other winter activities (surcharge)
Safety
We pay particular attention to staging this winter event exclusively on secure hillsides which offer a generous and safe braking area. In case of safety concers due to the snow conditions, we can swap to Building an Igloo or Winter Team Games at no extra cost.
Location
Schwägalp (SG) and Wildhaus (SG).
Hot beverages
During the entire event a snow bar offering hot punch is available to the participants. The event concludes with a cup of mulled wine for everybody to celebrate an unforgettable day.
