Menhir Express, Log flume ride in Parc Astérix, France
Menhir Express extends for 627 meters through water channels, featuring two major drops with the highest reaching 13 meters above ground level.
Hopkins Rides manufactured this water attraction in 1995 as part of the expansion of Parc Astérix's entertainment offerings in the Hauts-de-France region.
The transportation system mirrors ancient Gallic methods, with boats designed as stone blocks rather than traditional wooden logs found in similar attractions.
The attraction maintains a capacity of 960 passengers per hour, with boats accommodating four riders who must measure at least 100 centimeters in height.
Riders experience a rollercoaster-style camelback hill segment where boats temporarily leave the water channel during their journey through the course.
