Geocache Description:

[LAT] Murjāņu kamaniņu trase. Unikāls vēstures objekts. [ENG] Murjani Luge Track. Unique historic monument.

[LAT] Murjāņu kamaniņu trase celta 1978. gadā. Trase tika izveidota, pateicoties Rolanda Upatnieka iniciatīvai, kurš pats bija slavens kamaniņu braucējs, dēvēts arī par Latvijas bobsleja tēvu. Pēdējās sacensības te notika 1987. gadā. Pēc jaunas trases uzbūvēšanas Siguldā viss pārcēlās uz turieni. Pa trasi brauca arī ar vasaras ragavām. Uzmanīgi izpētiet konstrukciju un atrodiet kādu elementu, bez kura varētu arī iztikt. Tikai nestaigājiet, lūdzu, pa pašu trasi, īpaši tajās vietās, kur tā vēl nav restaurēta. Koka detaļas ir sapuvušas un lūzt pie katra soļa! Cienīsim mūsu kultūras mantojumu! [ENG] Murjani Luge Track was built near to Sport School Murjani in 1978. Luge sport has long history in Latvia and our sportsman have got medals in European and World championships and also in Olympic Games. For many years this probably was the place where they had their first sledging. Since new track was built in Sigulda, this one is completely unattended and used sometimes only for dirtsurfing. Carefully explore the construction to discover one useless element, but please do not step on the track, especially in places not completely restored. Wooden details are old and can be easily broken. Respect our cultural heritage!
