Oblivion: The Black Hole, Dive coaster at Gardaland theme park, Italy.
Oblivion: The Black Hole is a steel roller coaster at Gardaland, a theme park near Lake Garda in northern Italy. The track drops sharply into an underground tunnel complex where riders travel through darkness before emerging back into daylight after several inversions and turns.
The ride opened in spring 2015 and was the first roller coaster in Italy with a near-vertical drop. The Swiss manufacturer built it as part of a larger expansion of the park during those years.
The coaster strengthens Gardaland's position as a leading entertainment destination, attracting visitors from across Europe to experience advanced roller coaster engineering.
Visitors should have a tolerance for heights and fast turns, as the ride includes intense moments. Queue times can grow longer on sunny weekends and holidays, so arriving early in the morning helps avoid crowds.
The white track stands out against the dark entrance structure and creates a strong visual marker in the park. The name references the feeling of being forgotten when plunging into the black tunnels below ground.
