'Schlittenfahrt' was a German unrealised plan for withdrawal of elements of General Smilo Freiherr von Lüttwitz’s 9^th Army and General Fritz-Hubert Gräser’s 4^th Panzerarmee of Generaloberst Josef Harpe’s Heeresgruppe 'A' from the salient in eastern Poland between the Soviet bridgeheads of Marshal Sovetskogo Soyuza Georgi K. Zhukov’s 1^st Belorussian Front at Puławy over the Wisła and Kurówka rivers and of Marshal Sovetskogo Soyuza Ivan S. Konev’s 1^st Ukrainian Front at Baranów Sandomierski on the Vistula river (January 1945).

Adolf Hitler rejected the plan during the night of 9/10 January, and on the following day the Soviet forces attacked in the great 'Vistula-Oder Strategic Offensive Operation' and had effectively destroyed both armies by 17 January.
