Destination: Bobova Draha, Kutna Hora

This past weekend, we decided to stay local.  We recently learned that our neighboring town, Kutna Hora, has a bobsled area (bobova draha).  So off we went to check it out.

As it turns out, it wasn’t just a bobsled area.  It is a recreational area where one can also do Zorbing, dirt-bike riding, and rodeo bull riding.  There was also a jumping castle, a trampoline and a small playground for the kids to enjoy.

I didn’t get to ride the bobsled.  I’m not really a fan of rides that resemble a roller coaster.  However, I had a lot of fun just watching my boys go on the ride.

Here they are patiently awaiting their turn to get on the lift.

Before they went, my husband explained the rules to Jakub.

Then off they went.

A short wave for mama.

This is how the lift looked like.  The height is pretty decent.  The whole course is said to be the second longest bobsled course in Europe.

I wasn’t able to take pictures of the loops because it was on the other side of the hill.  But here is a photo of them in motion as they were going through the course.

And here’s one more as they were already descending.

Until finally, the ride was over.

My husband took Jakub to the playground for a short break, but that only lasted a little while since he wanted more.

So here they are again, getting ready to ascend and ride the bobsled course once again.

As for me and Michaela?  Well, we decided to sit it out.  She was mostly sleeping and I was just relaxing.  What better way to spend the weekend.

Anyhow, I hope you had a good one!
