Schweizer Bobbahn

Schweizer Bobbahn, Bobsled roller coaster at Heide Park, Soltau, Germany

Schweizer Bobbahn is a steel roller coaster at Heide Park featuring white tracks supported by green steel columns. The course winds through the park with varying elevation changes and passes through several enclosed tunnel sections.

The ride opened in 1993 as Schweizer Bobbahn, the fifth coaster of its Mack Rides model, though the station and tunnels were still under construction and the landscaping was only finished in 1995. It was renamed Bobbahn in 2014 when it became part of the Transsilvanien themed area, and its trains were repainted between the 2020 and 2021 seasons.

The name references Swiss bobsledding, drawing inspiration from winter sports in Alpine regions. Visitors experience this Alpine connection through the ride's design as they travel along the winding track.

The 990 m circuit runs on four block sections, so up to four trains can be on the track at once, though usually only three operate. The first lift hill raises riders to 27 m; a second lift returns them to station level. The station sits on an artificial mound built up in 1993, level with the upper part of the neighbouring water ride.

The station sits on an artificial hill built up for the Wildwasserbahn II, and the dark-ride hall was erected as a free-standing building before sand was piled over it. At opening in 1993 the site still looked like a construction site; the landscaping was only finished in 1995.
