Bobsleigh Driving Experience

Unavailable anywhere else in the world, this 5 day experience will probably be the most exhilarating and fulfilling challenge you will ever face. Under the expert tuition of national and Olympic coaches, you will be taught how to drive an un-modified 2-man racing bobsleigh down an Olympic track. Working in pairs, you will learn the theory of driving whilst walking the track. Then, beginning at the lower start gates, you will drive the bobsleigh at relatively low speeds. As ability and confidence increases, you will progress to the men’s start at the top of the track. This completely undiluted experience is exactly how the top drivers in the world learn their sport.
