The Whistler Sliding Centre is the only place in Canada where the general public can try bobsleighing, and visitors can do so on an actual Olympic track.

Visitors can reach speeds of up to 125km/hr and feel the acceleration of up to 4 g-forces. The passenger bobsleigh runs during any conditions, rain or shine.

The Whistler Sliding Centre is located on Whistler Blackcomb near Whistler Village. The Whistler Sliding Centre was home to the 2010 Winter Olympics’ bobsled, luge and skeleton tracks. Entry is free, but there are bobsled or skeleton rides available for a charge.
