Anubis: The Ride, Launched roller coaster in De Panne, Belgium

Anubis: The Ride is a launched steel roller coaster at Plopsaland De Panne, a theme park in Belgium near the French border, and it features three inversions including a dive loop and an Immelmann turn. The track passes through a tophat element that rises to 34 meters and the ride uses electromagnetic launch technology to propel the cars.

Anubis: The Ride opened on 5 April 2009 at the start of Plopsaland De Panne's season. Gerstlauer built the coaster for €6,000,000, and its launch accelerates the train from 0 to 90 km/h in two seconds. The layout then climbs a 34-metre top hat and runs through a dive loop, an Immelmann and a heartline roll.

The queue recreates the Hof Ten Dorpe house of the Het Huis Anubis series at two-thirds of its real size. Visitors pass narrow corridors to a statue of Count Rohan de Beaufort, made for the film Anubis en het Pad der 7 Zonden, then look through walls into rebuilt sets such as the cellar and secret passage. Framed photos from the first Anubis film hang in the hall, and the stairs pass Victor the caretaker's office.

The queue winds through narrow corridors past a statue of Count Rohan de Beaufort and wall panels showing sets from the Anubis series, then up stairs past Victor's office. Riders choose their row there: the back row sits highest and furthest out on the V-shaped car.

The launch sends the car from a standstill to full speed in around two seconds, giving riders an immediate and very physical jolt before the tophat element. Many visitors say this short burst at the start stays with them longer than the inversions that follow.
