The story

Opened in March 2008 about 60 km from Moscow, the Paramonovo track was built for bobsleigh, luge and skeleton. Its first 300 m run on steel pillars up to 27 m high, and its steepest section reaches 15%. It hosted a junior luge World Cup in December 2009, its first bobsleigh and skeleton races in March 2010 and the 2012 European luge championships. Training and racing later moved to Sochi, and the track was left without ice.

  • Its first 300 m are carried on steel pillars up to 27 m high.
  • It hosted the 2012 European luge championships.
  • It was out of use less than a decade after it opened.

Today

The track stands, including its section on stilts, but it is no longer frozen.
