#1 Ride the Luge!

The Skyline Luge on Sentosa is a safe yet fun way of introducing track racing to children. Hop into the driver's seat of a luge cart at the top of Mount Imbiah, then ride your way down to Siloso Beach. It's great for all ages and experience levels, though note that some age and height restrictions apply to ride alone.

So how does it work? This outdoor activity involves a three-wheeled cart moving purely with the pull of gravity. Riders have full control over the speed of their descent as they navigate on purpose-built tracks. There are four tracks – Dragon Trail, Jungle Trail, Kupu Kupu Trail and Expedition Trail – each with specially designed features including hairpin corners, downhill slopes and tunnels to add to the fun. Luge ride packages also include a Skyride that transports you to the top of the tracks. This chairlift provides a sweeping view of the Singapore skyline and the South China Sea as well as the lush forests of Sentosa.

You can also groove to your favourite tunes under the stars with “Night Luge: Ride the Beat”. The tracks will be illuminated, the music will be pumping and a curated playlist of chart-topping hits and timeless classics will fill the air.
