La Trace du Hourra

La Trace du Hourra is a bobsleigh coaster in the Gaulish zone. You glide in a bobsleigh through an open trough, without fixed rails, at speeds of up to 60 km/h. On the park's Dutch-language website it's called De Hoera achtbaan.

The concept

The ride is made up of three stages: le Virage de l'Aurochs, la spirale du fossile and la double défense du mammouth. According to the park, it's one of the highest bobsleigh coasters in the world and one of the fastest in Europe. It's also the second longest in Europe. The track was built by Mack Rides.

The Experience

Because the bobsleigh glides freely through the trough, every bend feels different. You swing high up the wall and then whoosh back down again. The park speaks of an unprecedented feeling of lightness. Thrilling, but not as intense as the big roller coasters.

Also for children

From 1.20 metres you can ride when accompanied. That makes this one of the more thrilling attractions you can already enjoy together with younger children.

Watch out for the three stages

The park divides the ride into three parts: the Aurochs' Bend, the Fossil's Spiral and the Mammoth's Double Tusk.

Shorter queues
