Sentosa Luge is a luge located in Sentosa, Singapore. It opened in the second half of 2005. The luge is situated on the Imbiah Lookout cluster opposite the Carlsberg Sky Tower, and has a length of 650 metres. The luge is a self-driving car system in which riders control the speed by pushing a pair of handlebars back and forth. The luge ride goes downhill, relying on gravitational pull to move. Although this ride is not as long or as thrilling as the ones in New Zealand, it is good for people who want an adrenaline rush without a car. After the ride, the Skyride using chairlifts brings riders back up to the starting point.
