La Chenille is a children's roller coaster in Trappes featuring a steel track with six connected cars that gently winds through forested areas. The ride curves multiple times through tree-lined sections, introducing young visitors to roller coaster experiences in a natural setting.
The ride originally operated at several French amusement parks before spending time at Nigloland until 2019. Its relocation to Trappes allowed the attraction to serve a new audience in the region.
The name 'La Chenille', meaning caterpillar in French, reflects the regional tradition of naming children's attractions after small animals and insects.
The ride accommodates 24 riders per journey with height requirements of 95 centimeters for accompanied children and 120 centimeters for independent riders. Check these measurements before visiting to ensure all family members can participate.
The steel track incorporates a chain lift mechanism and follows a specialized Big Apple layout pattern, taking riders through multiple tree-lined sections.
