Olympia Looping

The Olympia Looping thrills its riders with five loops modeled after the Olympic rings, a track length of 1,250 meters, a ride height of 32.5 meters, and speeeeds of up to 90 km/h. Since 1989, the roller coaster has been a yearly guest at Oktoberfest, where you can still experience it today. Another regular stop is Hyde Park Winter Wonderland in London.

The largest mobile roller coaster of the Barth showmen family spent a total of six seasons at Vienna’s Wurstelprater. In 2025, it appeared there for the time being for the last time – after the Olympia Looping departed, construction of the Theater im Prater began on the large plot in autumn 2025.
