Prague Bobsleigh

What a rush!

Make the most of being on a hen weekend in Prague and try a classic Czech event. The Prague Bobsleigh is one of those amazing, adrenaline sports you can't really do in Britain. It's massive in Eastern Europe so get into the spirit of things and take the plunge. Wave goodbye to the single life by shooting down a run with steep banks and sharp bends at lightning speed. Screw up the courage, grab your besties and go for it.

Come on! This is a rare chance to try one of those sports that wow the crowds at the Olympics. Usually associated with winter, bobsledding can be enjoyed in summer as well, just on a dry run instead of ice. Imagine being able to say you tried this on your hen weekend! Definitely a wow moment.

Do something different on your final weekend of freedom...

Never tried anything quite like bobsledding before? No worries. Trained instructors will be on hand to help you. These guys are total bob junkies and really know their stuff. They'll go through the safety aspects and psych you up for a real white knuckle ride. Discover how to control the bobsled and then take a deep breath as you climb to the top of the run and launch yourself down.

You can expect to hit speeds of around 40mph. Yikes! After you've zoomed down the run a few times, head to the top of the site for a well-deserved beer in a bar with amazing views of Prague's spires, domes and turrets.
