Feedback

The main event, the ice driving, was efficiently organised with very knowledgeable instructors making the trip memorable and exciting.

As the plus one I was invited to watch on the 2nd day and felt part of the experience. As a classic motorsport driver the transferred knowledge gained and confidence on the ice may well help on those wet weekends motor racing back in the UK !

We highly recommend having a go!

“The experience was all that was expected and more, it was a steep learning curve and left me much more able and confident with car control. The hotel and food were superb, the sauna with the views was just soooo nice. Skidoos are always good fun, especially over the local terrain”

“A truly fantastic driving experience, well organised, great instructors, good company, the weekend ticked all my boxes and it was something I would never have dreamt of doing but now am looking forward to the next time. I not only enjoyed myself, but also learned a lot!!!!!”

“An extremely enjoyable weekend; action packed with ice driving and snowmobiling that would be thoroughly enjoyed by both ‘petrol heads’ as well as their partners. The skills learned during the weekend are equally applicable to driving on roads back home or on the track and the cars used are a drivers dream – thoroughly recommended 10/10”

“I have been racing for 9 years and a friend recommended IceDriving.Net, I cannot believe how much I learned over two days. When I went out on track in the wet after the course, I felt so much more confident and my times were so much more competitive…and pole position at the first wet race meeting!”
