Calamity Mine
Calamity Mine is the mine train coaster in Adventure World. The train takes you through the remains of an old gold mine in the Wild West. The ride opened in 1992 and was built by the Dutch company Vekoma.
The concept
You board a mine train with a steam locomotive at the front. The track winds between red rocks, wooden scaffolding and mine shafts. According to the park, it goes up to 22 metres into the mine tunnel.
The Experience
The ride lasts just over two minutes and has two lift hills. These are followed by sharp bends and short drops, with a top speed of 48 km/h. The track is 785 metres long and reaches a height of 14 metres. A cheerful ride that never gets too wild.
Discover Calamity Mine
A true classic
Calamity Mine has been running since 1992 and is still one of the park's most popular family coasters.
Ride photo
A photo is taken of you during the ride. Check afterwards whether your best face made it in.
Use a Speedy
Want a short wait? With a Speedy you enter via a separate entrance. You can buy one from € 8 at the ticket office, in the shops or online, while stocks last (as of November 2026).
Visitor information
From 1.00 metre you can ride accompanied by an adult. From 1.20 metres you can ride alone. With the free Baby Switch, parents don't have to queue twice: one parent rides while the other waits with the child at the exit and then gets on. Children are measured with their shoes on. Not sure? At the first aid post next to Dalton Terror you can have your child measured and they'll get a wristband showing their height.
Worth its weight in gold for families
Calamity Mine is perfect to enjoy together. Afterwards, have ribs at Country Cantina or a burger at Dalton Burger, also in Adventure World.
