The Alpina Bahn is the classic eight roller-coaster for families, even if the term "roller-coaster" doesn't give full credit to the Alpina Bahn.

In fact it should be stressed that although there are no "revolutions of death" as in other attractions, the carriages travel at a maximum speed of 79.6 kilometres per hour,
providing the passengers with the classic "air-time" effect , i.e. giving the sensation of weightlessness.
Designed and built by Anton Schwarzkopf, it had its début in Düsseldorf on 16 July 1983, but it may be considered a novelty because it "reappeared" at the Oktoberfest in 2008, after an absence of 14 years (1994).
It is made up of 5 trains, each with five cars, each capable of transporting 5 people.
It is 86 meters long, 32 meters wide and 27 meters high, with a weight of around 630 tonnes, and can carry up to 2,000 people per hour. The course is 910 meters long.
It is the largest and longest transportable roller-coaster in the world.
