Olympic Bobsleigh Track Ride, Sarajevo
Three runs down the 1984 Olympic bobsleigh track on Trebević, on a wheeled sled steered by you and coached by a Bosnian Olympian.
Sarajevo hosted the 1984 Winter Olympics, and the bobsleigh and luge track still snakes down the forested slopes of Trebević above the city. It was damaged in the war and later covered in graffiti, which made it one of Sarajevo’s best-known sights. On this trip you don’t just walk it, you ride it.
The trip we link to picks you up at your hotel and drives about 15 minutes up the mountain. After a safety briefing from Mirza Nikolajev, who raced bobsleigh for Bosnia at the 2022 Winter Olympics, you take 3 runs on a wheeled sled down different sections of the original track, with time between runs for photos of the city below. The whole outing takes about an hour and a half.
It costs from €65 per person, with extra runs and GoPro footage at €10 each. Combine it with the cable car up Trebević, or in winter with a ski day at Jahorina or Bjelašnica, Sarajevo’s other two Olympic mountains.
