championships. From 21 January to 3 February 2013, bobsleigh and skeleton
world championships will once again be held on the Olympia Bob Run. You can
find out what it feels like to hurtle down the 1,722m (5,650ft) natural-ice bob
run at lightning speed on a bob guest ride, piloted by a professional, experiencing
speeds of up to 135kph (84mph).
Cresta Run The legendary Cresta Run in St. Moritz was the birthplace of the
sport of skeleton racing. With a length of 1,200m (3,920ft) and 10 corners, the
Cresta is built anew every winter, like the bob run, using water and snow.
Riders reach average speeds of about 90kph (55mph) – travelling head-first,
their chin a mere 10cm (4in) above the ice.
