About this experience

Take part in a one-of-a-kind adventure on Sarajevo’s Trebević Mountain—home to the iconic 1984 Winter Olympics bobsled track and one of the most fascinating remnants of Sarajevo’s Olympic legacy. In this experience, you’ll visit the Olympic mountain Trebević, just minutes from the city center, and ride a luge-style sled down the original track, now surrounded by pine forest and powerful graffiti reflecting the city’s spirit. The entire tour lasts approximately 2 hours.

Perfect for adventure seekers and families with children and adults between the ages of 8 and 55, this tour offers a unique way to connect with Sarajevo’s Olympic heritage. A key benefit is the opportunity to be trained and guided by one of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s top athletes—Mirza Nikolajev—who is not only part of the national Olympic team but also revived the luge sport in your country. Through his stories and guidance, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the 1984 Olympics and the legacy of this track.
