La Ronde des Rondins, Steel roller coaster in Fraispertuis City, France.
La Ronde des Rondins is a steel roller coaster at the Fraispertuis City amusement park. The ride uses a pneumatic lift system to propel trains along its compact track layout designed for younger visitors.
This ride originally operated at Parc Astérix before being relocated to Fraispertuis City in 2014. The move allowed the park to expand its attractions for families with younger children.
The roller coaster represents French amusement engineering excellence through its collaboration between Zierer manufacturing and Ing.-Büro Stengel GmbH structural design.
The ride processes up to 600 visitors per hour with five cars carrying two passengers each. This design makes it ideal for family groups looking for gentle rides.
The pneumatic lift system on this ride is unusual, as most roller coasters use chain lifts instead. This uncommon approach creates a distinct acceleration that feels different from typical coaster experiences.
