1. Bobsleigh Track

Unique to La Plagne is the fantastic bobsleigh track, open every winter between mid December and mid April.

Experience the thrill of bobsleighing for yourself!

Take the Bobraft – a four-seater vehicle that reaches speeds of 80kph; the Mono-Bob – a single seater vehicle, piloted by yourself that accelerates up to almost 90kph (if you dare...); or the Taxi Bob – driven by a professional racer this replica of the four-man competition bobsleigh will give you a taste for speed as you experience 3.5G and over 100kph!

Situated halfway between Plagne 1800 and La Roche, the track was built for the 1992 Winter Olympic Games. Since the Olympics the track has reopened every winter for bobsleigh, luge and skeleton. It has welcomed tens of thousands of visitors over the years and hosted a multitude of international competitions. It is the only one of its kind in the whole of France.

Due to the extreme velocity and adrenaline pumping twists and turns of the bobsleigh there are age and health restrictions imposed. Enquire before booking if you are under 14 years old, pregnant, or have any heart/back problems.
