Arctic Ice Karting

Our private track is 500m long with great high-speed straight and tough corners for drifting. There are plenty of spots for overtaking. Safety is our main priority. When we build the track, we always remember to take care of sharp corners and faster straights. We build a snow wall to protect from damage and injuries if a kart ends up outside of the track. Spectators have limited approach to the track and observe from safe distance. All drivers wear protective gear including helmet. Should still something happen, our guides have first aid schooling and know well what to do and what not to do to minimize all risks.

For safety reasons, children under the age of 10 years old and under the height of 150 cm are not allowed to drive the ice karting.

Our ice karting always includes a full winter gear you will need to safely participate in the activity. Our professional guides will give you instructions how to get the most out of the exciting activity.

very good reception from the staff. One of the agency s staff spoke French. very good activity I recommend my 10-year-old son to love. be careful about the minimum height of 1.50m for children. Fortunately the staff found a solution for my son who was only 1.45m tall. There was even enough to grill chamallows. I recommend this agency we went through getyourguide to buy the tickets. remember to book in advance because tickets leave quickly.
We felt like F1 drivers xD

Friendly staff speaking French for one of them. 6 of us went karting on ice, unfortunately it snowed, we couldn't see anything behind the visors but the experience is worth doing. Loan of wetsuit, gloves and shuttle. On the other hand, contrary to other reviews we did not have the race sign, nor any race in fact.
Amazing !!

We can only recommend this activity! From start to finish, everyone was really nice, attentive, caring and funny! We were even able to go as a family when there were 6 of us. The place is magnificent and the karts work well. For information, we had -12 degrees, we had kept our thermal underwear and we added the wetsuits provided. We were slightly cold so we advise you to keep your fleece clothing underneath as well. It’s an activity to do! We highly recommend it!!
An awesome experience with professional, friendly staff.

It said that the experience lasted 1 hour and it lasted 2 and a half minutes of which you are only driving 20 minutes total, since they are groups of 30 people where there is a maximum amount of 10 karting, which means that the rest of the time is waiting.
OMG, brilliant
