Description
The highest and fastest wooden roller coaster in Europe
Every roller coaster has its ups and downs - Colossos has both. This gigantic structure can be seen for miles and is known in specialist circles as the "eighth wonder of the world" ... From a height of 60m it descends a 61 degree steep mountain, in the valley the train reaches a top speed of up to 110km / h and is therefore nothing for the faint of heart. Colossos has been shining in a new light since 2019 and impresses with its mystical theming. Will you be able to escape the giant?
Hints:
Size restriction: From 1.40 m to 1.95 m
