Spiral is the bobsleigh, luge, and skeleton track built for the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics, now open to the public for adrenaline-pumping rides. Visitors can experience the G-forces of a professional bobsleigh run with a trained pilot, or try luge and skeleton on a reduced-speed course. The track's steep curves and icy straightaways offer a unique taste of Olympic competition. Safety briefings and equipment are provided, making it accessible even for first-timers seeking an unforgettable thrill.
Don't miss
