A Rodel, also known as a toboggan sits upright in the snow in the Wildgerlostal (Wildgerlos Valley), Salzburger Land in Austria, and tobogganing is just one of the many winter sports that people can do here. Skiing and snowboarding is the most popular attraction but for people who don't like to ski, tobogganing is an option that can be fun and exciting.
This area of Austria gets a lot of snow and winter sports are a very fun pastime here. People come from all over the world to enjoy the snow and activities here and there are many mountains on which to try many different kinds of ski runs the area offers.
