Sledding as we know it now began in the mid-to-late 1800s in St Mortiz, Switzerland. It was discovered when rich tourists converted delivery sleds for recreational racing. Sleds were typically produced in places with a lot of winter snow and used to move people and things. In 2002, the thrilling sport was included in the winter Olympic Games.
As you hurtle down the Hajar mountain range, swerving through breathtaking landscapes with views of the spectacular coastline, you'll achieve speeds of up to 40 kilometres per hour. It is the region’s longest sled ride.The Jais Sledder operates on a low-slung track. Because you are sitting so close to the ground, the speed appears to be tenfold. The fully-controllable ride covers 1,840 meters of exciting hairpin curves and undulating waves, with views of the magnificent coastline, in about eight minutes. After being strapped in, riders will be able to maintain their preferred speed with access to a braking system.
