Big gun shooting and summer bobsleigh

Here are a some of the more interesting activities on offer in Riga:

Big Gun Shooting

A cocktail of Big Guns, a Nuclear Bunker in the centre of Riga and plenty of Ammo ensures a heart pounding shooting activity you will certainly never forget. A golden bullet will be rewarded to the best marksman in your group and you all can take home and frame your mutilated target.

Summer Bobsleigh

Even with no ice you can experience the rush of hurtling down a championship bobsleigh track at over 80km/h. You will team more..
