Bobbahn
The Bobbahn is located in Transsilvanien and works just like a real bobsleigh run. There are no rails: the bobs run freely through an open channel. The ride opened in 1993 and was built by Mack.
The concept
From a height of 27 metres, the bobs shoot through a narrow ice channel, with steep curves in which you're almost lying flat. Because the bob slides freely through the channel, every ride feels a little different. It's a fast ride, but not an extreme one.
The Experience
You reach speeds of up to 58 km/h and swing from one steep curve into the next. The track is 826 metres long and a ride lasts around 166 seconds. The high, banked curves are especially impressive.

Check the weather
The Bobbahn needs a certain temperature to run. In cold or wet weather, it sometimes opens later or not at all.
Ride in pairs
The bobs are small. With your friend or child behind you, every curve feels even wilder.
Express Ticket
The Bobbahn is included in the Express Ticket Bronze (from €25), Gold and Platin, as of November 2026.
Visitor information
You must be at least 1.20 metres tall and 6 years old. Children under 8 who are also shorter than 1.30 metres must ride with an adult. The ride isn't suitable if you're pregnant or have heart problems, back problems or high blood pressure. The Bobbahn isn't suitable for visitors with disabilities. Have your child measured at the first ride. They'll then get a wristband showing their confirmed height, so they don't need to be measured again everywhere.
A family favourite
The Bobbahn is a good step up between the children's coasters and the Big 7. If the weather doesn't cooperate, Grottenblitz and Big Loop are good alternatives.
