Winter Fun in the "Car City"

Winter will soon be upon the "Car City" of Wolfsburg: from November 24, 2011 to January 29, 2012, visitors will be able to indulge in some tobogganing fun on a 150 metre long and 30 metre high snow slope – irrespective of the weather and outside temperature.

The NUSSLI assembly team will shortly begin with the construction of what is probably Europe's tallest free-standing snow slope on the premises of the "Car City" in Wolfsburg. Over the course of 20 days they will assemble the slope with its 960 square metre tobogganing area from around 12,000 components. Then 350 cubic metres of real snow will be transported to Wolfsburg, and soon the winter fun can begin.
