Unique riding fun on the Alpina cable car
The Alpina-Bahn has been an integral part of the Oktoberfest since 1997, making it virtually impossible to imagine the festival without it. The world's largest and longest transportable rollercoaster without loops guarantees pure thrills for the whole family.
The family-friendly rollercoaster
The Alpina-Bahn is particularly attractive for families and children due to the ‘missing’ loops. This means that anyone aged four and over can experience the adrenaline rush of a rollercoaster without spending time upside down. This is one of the reasons why the ride is so popular with children of primary school age.
The Alpina-Bahn: Pure Tradition
The Alpina Bahn was built in 1983 by renowned carousel and rollercoaster builder Anton Schwarzkopf and thus epitomises the showman's tradition at the Wiesn. Anyone who skips this ride during their visit is missing out on a piece of Oktoberfest history.The approx. 1 kilometre long course reaches speeds of up to 80 km/h, with occasional drops from a height of 27 metres at a gradient of almost 50 percent - passengers experience ‘airtime’, or weightlessness, for a few seconds.
The Alpina-Bahn for the little ones
With a base area of 86m x 32m and a total height of 32m, the Alpina Bahn is the largest transportable roller coaster in the world that has no loops, so if you don't like hanging upside down, you're in good hands here.
With a total track length of approx. 1020 metres, it is also the longest of its kind. Passengers are pressed into their seats at a maximum speed of 80 km/h with 4.8 G.
