Set in Fåberg, just outside the vibrant town of Lillehammer, Norway, Lillehammer Olympiapark AS offers a one-of-a-kind summer adventure: Hjulbob, the only summer bobsled experience in the Nordics. This high-speed ride on a carefully engineered track delivers heart-pounding thrills for adrenaline seekers, reaching speeds up to 100 km/h while pulling forces as intense as 3G. With an authorized pilot in control, riders can relax as they take in sharp turns and steep drops that showcase the region’s unique terrain. The bobsled track twists through a rugged landscape carved by Norway’s glacial history, combining natural elements like dense pine stands and rocky outcrops that add texture and excitement to the course.
The activity lasts around 15 minutes, yet every second is packed with raw speed and stunning views over the Innlandet region’s rolling hills and forested valleys. Participants receive a full briefing, safety helmet, and shuttle transport to the track start, making this experience accessible—even for families with children aged 10 and up (12 without adult accompaniment). Lillehammer Olympiapark’s role as the official host preserves the area’s legacy as a winter sports hub while reinventing the thrill as a warm-weather draw.
