    49 Swiss francs is about $54 American & 3060 meters is a bit less than 2 miles
    (~2 miles for ~6 1/2 minutes is ~3 1/4 MPH average... Looked faster to me)
    So wonderful that this experience can be enjoyed by so many who would never otherwise have the chance!

      There's the component of gravitational acceleration at some angle, so the velocity can't be constant. Also considering the curves where there's a small centripetal force may nullify net force at some moments at that time only the velocity can be constant.

    awesome. they should have these all over the hillsides of Scotland. I lived for a short while near Loch Ness and the hillsides there are meant for this type of thing. I proposed the idea but the landowners up there are too busy feeling hypnotised and worrying about having their land stolen from them. Perhaps one day they will relax and allow people to enjoy themselves and be happy. It would probably do them good to. I'm sure the ride was a wonderful experience. It certainly seems to be.

And this track didn't even have any 360 degree turns... One fun thing to do at the Alps, but still after mountain carts! That is for adrenalin! 😉
