LUGE LIKE AN OLYMPIAN
Learn how to luge on one of only four ice luge tracks in the country.
One-of-a-Kind Luge Track
Muskegon luge track is one of only four luge tracks in the United States. It's the only kunstbahn track (German for artificial track) made from natural ice and not refrigerated. Our 850 ft. track was designed by three-time Olympian Frank Masley. Shorter in length than the Olympic tracks in Lake Placid and Salt Lake City, the Muskegon track provides an Olympic thrill at a level first-time luge athletes can handle. It consists of six curves and two starting areas. Public participants receive equipment and training before sliding at speeds up to 30 mph.
As Featured On:
Only in Michigan can you luge at night on our one-of-a-kind track built by an Olympian.
