Sentosa Luge and Skyride

Sentosa Luge is one of seven attractions within the Imbiah Lookout area in Sentosa Island. This tourist attraction is a 650 metres and SGD 5.5 million luge track with an aerial chair lift cableway that links the cluster of attractions at the hilltop near the Carlsberg Sky Tower to Siloso's Beach entertainment hub on this famous resort island in Singapore.

The Skyride (previously known as chairlift) ride back is also quite an unforgettable experience. That is, of course, if you are not afraid of heights. The Skyride will bring you on top of those trees and greeneries.

The Sentosa Luge is a combination of a go-kart and toboggan. The non-motorised, three-wheel carrier is the first attraction of its kind in Southeast Asia. The luge is a self-driving car system in which riders control the speed by pushing a pair of handlebars back and forth. With a unique steering and braking system that allows you to make the ride as leisurely or as exciting as you want. The luge ride goes downhill, relying on gravitational pull to move. The force of gravity moves the car of the sleigh downhill and it is undeniably a thrilling incident. One may almost feel the gush of adrenaline while being on a ride in the Luge. After the ride, the Skyride using chairlifts brings riders back up to the starting point.

Sentosa Luge & Skyride now operates from 10am in the morning all the way till late at night.
