Summer Bobsleigh
Sigulda is the only Olympic-standard bobsleigh track in Baltic’s, home of national team. There are ten curves, one bridge. In summer descent is performed in bob on wheels, piloted by Olympic team instructor. In winter we use leisure version of the bob, made of soft padding and rubber called "vuchko" (soft bob), not piloted and taking 5 participants at a time. Each participant gets TWO rides. Activity is state-run and is known for cancelling bookings without notice due to unscheduled training sessions and track maintenance. The track converts to summer use on tarmac and back to ice every year, this is weather depending and without notice, and the track will stay closed for couple of weeks. Even when reserved well in advance the track does not guarantee booking; in such cases we provide alternative activity at our cost.
