It’s been around for over 119 years and it doesn’t age. The Olympia Bob Run St. Moritz-Celerina, by its official name, is a myth, an institution, the idea of which dates back to 1897, when British vacationers in the area invented the bobsleigh to brighten up their winter holidays. This route, which had cost 11,000 francs to build, then evolved quite a bit, but one thing has not changed: it is unique. Especially because this track is the last of the planetary circuit to be made of natural ice.
