Font-Romeu / Pyrénées 2000

Draco’Snow – 4-Season Rail Luge

This is a major new attraction. The luge sur rail (rail sled) called Draco’Snow opened in summer 2025. 

  • Specs: 820 m of descent, 410 m of ascent, 96 m of vertical drop.
  • A “4-saison” ride, meaning it’s open summer and winter.
  • Riders can control their speed: more daring or more scenic, depending on preference.
  • Suitable for quite young users: starts from age 3 (with some conditions).
  • Night Sessions  give a completely different experience — descend in the dark, with the lights, for a more “magical / adrenaline” feel

What are you doing this summer?

Font-Romeu / Pyrénées 2000 is clearly investing in summer tourism as well as  winter, and rapidly becoming  one of the most varied summer mountain resorts in the French Pyrenees..
Look out in 2026 for the Devalkart, trottinette sur herbe (grass scooter), suntubing,  bungee trampolines and increased pedestrian (piéton) access via lifts, making it easier to reach high-altitude viewpoints and lakes. And remember – the luge and zip wire are both all year round additions, operating both in summer and winter.
