Having a go on the Olympic bobsleigh run

Posted by AlisonAMT 30 August 2011

Norway hosted the Winter Olympics in 1994 in Lillehammer and it's well worth a visit, not least because you can still have a go at honing your bobsleigh skills! In winter, you can go down the icy run and in summer, which is when we visited, you can ride down on a wheeled cart! The climb up the run is the arduous bit, but you are rewarded with five minutes of pure exhilaration!!
Perfect fun for the whole family.
