Merlin's Mayhem, Steel inverted roller coaster at Dutch Wonderland, Lancaster, US.
The 60-foot-tall steel structure extends 1,300 feet through the park, reaching speeds of 38 miles per hour with suspended seating under the track.
The attraction opened in April 2018 after construction delays, replacing the former Turnpike ride that operated since 1963 at Dutch Wonderland.
The roller coaster incorporates a storyline about Merlin searching for a dragon, adding entertainment elements to the mechanical experience.
Children need to measure at least 39 inches tall to ride this family coaster, which accommodates 20 passengers in each train configuration.
The ride includes onboard audio systems and carries passengers through interactions with the park's Sky Ride and Wonderland Special railroad tracks.
