About this experience

Your Passenger Bobsleigh Experience begins with an orientation about your ride and track etiquette. You will then be shuttled to your start position where you will be fitted with a helmet. You will meet your pilot, and with the assistance of the track crew, be seated in the sled and go through the final safety checks. Listen as your team’s names are being announced on the big speakers! Once the control tower gives your sled the green light, track crew will give you a push, and you, your pilot, and your two fellow participants are off! As you will accelerate down the track, lean into the corners to assist your steering pilot in reaching top speeds of 125+ km/hr in the final corner. The uphill outrun will slow you to a stop at the finish dock, where the track crew will assist you to exit the sled. High five with your crew and line up for your commemorative photo. You have mastered the world's fastest track!
