Our plan was to go sledding in the Black Forest with our friends, The Burgoons (Ian, Paula, and Evan). When we reached our sledding destination (approximately 1.5 hours from Sindelfingen) we found out that there was no sledding today because there wasn't enough snow (even though the ground was covered in snow...). Before we were able to get too bummed out we saw that the sled hill was also home to The Hasenhorn Coaster. The Hasenhorn is a year-round outdoor individual-cart roller coaster. SWEET. We checked out the course:
And decided it was a must.
To get to the top of the coaster, you take a chair lift up. The chair lift ride provided a great view of the town, Todtnau, below:
Once at the top, we hopped in our own little cart and we were off!
The cart speed was regulated only by a set of hand brakes that Brian carefully left untouched. It was a pretty wild ride, but so SO fun. So even though sledding was a bust, we had a blast on The Hasenhorn!
