April 2016: Corin Forest Bobsled

Posted on by akitchener

The longest bobsled/alpine slide in the southern hemisphere is located at Corin Forest, in the middle of nowhere up in the mountains outside of Canberra, and although it’s a fairly long trek out, if you love these things, this one is awesome. Trust me! I should know – I rode it five times!

Blink and you’ll miss the entrance to Corin!

Great scenery all around as you go up the hill.

It’s a long hill — and not hugely comfortable on your lower back!

Start line. Empty track ahead. No brakes!

Lauryn has the GoPro ready to record the ride.

The trick is to try and not brake at all in the turns.
