Skyline Luge Sentosa is hosting a 10-tastic carnival from 21 to 30 August 2015 to celebrate an amazing decade of growth and milestones.
About Skyline Luge, the journey began on the 26 August 2005 with just 191 luge rides recorded for that day and by last November 2014, it has achieved its 10 millionth-ride milestone and close to 4,000 luge rides zooming down their trails every day.
I can’t wait to start my adventure at Skyline Luge!
We hop onboard the Skyride chairlift to admire the beautiful scenery of Sentosa Island, Singapore’s city skyline and enjoy the gentle breeze along the journey.
Next, this is the part, the boys enjoyed the most, the skyline luge. Before taking the ride, visitors have to put on a helmet for safety reason.
At night, the ride is even more dazzling as each luge track comes with unique lightings consists of flashing lights, vibrant colours for a totally new experience. It is the world’s first and only night luge ride.
The luge is an unique 3 wheeled cart that gives rider full control over the speed and direction using a unique breaking and steering system on a purpose built track.
Visitors can choose to ride thrilling fast to enjoy the speed or just to cruise along slowly to look at the scenery on either of the 2 trails, the Jungle Trail which is 650 metres or the Dragon Trail which is 688 metres.
The luge is very easy to operate, safe and suitable for all ages to have an exciting fun adventure.
