Ice-Rafting in Oberhof: Experience the WM Ice Channel at 75 km/h
Adrenaline, ice, and real World Cup atmosphere: At Ice-Rafting in the LOTTO Thüringen EISARENA Oberhof, adventure seekers experience the legendary bobsled and luge track from the perspective of the professionals. On November 25, 2026, the thrilling ride starts from the men's start through the icy channel.
Top Speed and Steep Curves
The specially designed Ice-Rafting boats can reach speeds of up to 75 km/h on the track. A gradient of up to 9.2 percent, tight steep curves, and the characteristic roar of the ice channel ensure intense field tension away from traditional competitive sports.
Team Experience Through the Ice Channel
The inflatable boat experience combines speed, tactics, and team spirit. Up to ten people can share the ride: six adventure seekers sit in the front boat, with four more in the back boat. A pilot safely steers the connected boats through the curves of the track.
World Cup Feeling in the LOTTO Thüringen EISARENA
The Oberhof Ice Arena is one of Germany's traditional winter sports venues. The track was inaugurated in 1971 as the second artificially refrigerated bobsled and luge track in the world. Today, the route features numerous curves and a height difference of nearly 100 meters. Floodlights, ice channel, and fan chants make the visit a special winter experience.
Important Notes for Participants
The meeting point is at the men's start of the LOTTO Thüringen EISARENA. Participants should arrive 15 minutes before the start. A helmet will be provided on-site and must be worn for safety reasons. Weather-appropriate clothing is sufficient; special sportswear is not required. Children can participate from the age of seven and a height of about 1.20 meters, provided the helmet fits securely.
Conclusion: Winter Action at a World-Class Level
Ice-Rafting in Oberhof offers concentrated speed, thrilling curves, and a stadium atmosphere that usually only occurs at major winter sports competitions. For those who want to experience the ice channel not just from the stands, hop in and feel the thrill live.
