🏁 Have you ever thought about trying ShowelRace on a different track? We’ve got an offer!

There are moments when the ice in Sigulda already knows your name.
When your start movement is precise down to the millimeter.
And then the thought appears…

What would happen if we took ShowelRace to a different track?

Oberhof is calling us.
With its own character. Its own rhythm. Its own curves. And most importantly, something new.

This won’t be just a trip. It’s a ShowelRace expedition beyond the usual. A journey where the main focus remains unchanged, the track, the speed, the precision, while everything around it turns into a true team adventure.

Between runs there will also be time to enjoy: shared lunches, short trips around the area, and free time for those who want to work or simply recharge in the forests of Thuringia.

Below you’ll find the detailed day by day travel plan.
If your heart beats just a little faster at the thought of different ice…

You know what to do. 🧊🔥
Message us at +371 26131329 and we’ll arrange everything!
