One of those great, short, weekend activities in the winter is what I like to call "high adventure" sledding.
The idea is to rent a sled (3 euros for a half day), take the chairlift up the slope and sled down the slope at whatever speed you can handle, navigating the sled down the slope with grace, poise, control, safety, and of course fun.
Student Life took the RA's for a taste during their RA training week and it was a blast for everyone -- all the way from our 1 1/2 year old Dominic to the RA's to my wife and I who are nearing 30!
Sledding in Mariazell was relatively cheap, close the Kartause, and ever so much fun! Mariazell, too is home to one of the most famous Marian pilgrimage shrines in all of Europe which is why we will hike there at the end of the semester.
