Riga Winter Bobsleigh Race (Sigulda)

Book Write a Review

Experience the real thrill of bobsleigh pilot and adrenaline rush at a speed of up to 120 km/h at Olympic Bobsleigh track in Sigulda where you can try bobsleigh luge and skeleton. The Winter Bobsleigh is available from November until March and this is a fantastic winter experience with positive emotions you definitely want to try at least once in your life.

However, if you would like to try the same experience during May – September season, you are still welcome to try our Summer Bobsleigh Experience and enjoy the ultimate speed of bobsleigh on wheels then!

Your activity begins with getting into on a winter soft bob (also called “Vuchko” or “Skelet”) or the mightly Olympic Bob, slowly setting off and then reaching a crazy speed of 80-90 km/h, so that at some turns you almost feel like lifting off and flying away from the track!

Located in Sigulda, a cosy and picturesque town half-hour ride from Riga, this is the only Bobsleigh (or sometimes called “Bobsled”) track in Eastern Europe, built in 1986, 1km long, 121m elevation and 17 over-banks giving an impressive maximum speed of 120 km/h.

– 16th – 26th January 2020

      We had a first class time at the bobsleigh. All of our group had a really enjoyable time.

      Our guide Vita was brilliant, she blended well with our group, was great fun, very friendly and offered us lots of good advice. Myself and a few others from the party have already left 5* reviews on the Facebook page. Thanks for all of your help and best of luck for the future!

      Yes we really enjoyed the experience. The whole service from my initial contact until being dropped off after was really good. The price was competitive in comparison to other quotes I received for our group and we were even given a discount based on the numbers we had. Our guide was excellent and I would like her to know we really appreciated her her help and advice on the day.
      The bobsleigh ride itself was worth the long journey as it is something we will never forget!

      The Team at Riga Guide arranged a bobsleigh trip for the 3 of us from Australia. They did a great job to arrange this for us and the actual trip on the day was a smooth as silk. Pick up was on time and the trip there and back was great. I will be using they again for sure. Great job Team.
      Thanks from the 3 Australians.
