Gold Rush
Gold Rush is the most thrilling roller coaster at Attractie- & Vakantiepark Slagharen. It is a triple launch coaster: you're accelerated three times during the ride. Twice forwards, once backwards. The coaster by German manufacturer Gerstlauer opened in 2017.
The concept
Gold Rush takes you back to the days of the gold rush. In 1848 gold was discovered in California and fortune seekers from all over the world headed to the Wild West to get rich. That atmosphere of gold diggers and miners is reflected in the design of the ride. You take your seat in the car and set off in search of your own fortune.
The Experience
After the launch you reach a speed of 95 km/h. Along the way you go upside down twice. Because you're also launched backwards for a stretch, you never know exactly what's coming. According to rcdb, the track is about 400 metres long and 33 metres high. A short but intense ride for real daredevils.
Discover Gold Rush
Go early or late
Gold Rush is Slagharen's big roller coaster. The queue is usually shortest at the start and end of the day.
Watch from the terrace
At the Music Hall you can sit on the terrace with a view of Gold Rush. Ideal for anyone who doesn't dare to ride.
Take home a souvenir
After your ride you walk into the Gold Exchange, with souvenirs from this coaster.
Visitor information
Gold Rush has a minimum height of 1.30 metres. If you're tall enough, you may ride on your own or accompanied. In certain weather conditions the ride may open later, close earlier or stay closed. Do you have a disability? Then pick up a yellow or purple access wristband at Guest Service. It lets you enter via a separate entrance; it does not give priority.
The heart of the Wild West
Gold Rush belongs in every day at Slagharen. Want even more thrills afterwards? Then choose the Golden Route of Sky Sifter or brave the drop of Free Fall.
