Added on toboggan runs, toboggan sport shops etc. Toboggan is a small sled a person sits in, usually used over snow or ice, particularly on a slope.

For a bobsleigh, luge, and skeleton run, sport=bobsleigh is used.

For mapping an area that is used for casual family sledging only piste:type=sled is used, since sport=toboggan is for dedicated toboggan tracks.

Furthermore, there are "summer toboggan" runs for leisure, with sleds on wheels in a trough or on rails (similar to a roller coaster), also called Alpine Coaster or Luge, which are run as tourist attractions. These are either tagged with attraction=summer_toboggan or attraction=alpine_coaster instead.

How to map

Draw the way way of the toboggan track and add sport=toboggan to mark toboggan run. For ones used for racing add also leisure=track

Further tags
