Organ Music and a Small Roller Coaster

Böhmischer Prater

In addition to the large Wiener Prater, there is a second inner-city amusement park, the Böhmischer Prater, in the Favoriten district of Vienna on the edge of the Laaer Berg recreation area. In addition to more modern facilities, the park offers a number of historical treasures, such as the 125-year-old horse carousel, the 86-year-old caterpillar track and the somewhat hidden flight carousel.

The park is mostly aimed at children, who appreciate the park very much, even though the most visited attraction on this day was the mini golf course. In general the park was well visited this Sunday, probably due to numerous communion celebrations, so that even the search for a parking spot was a bit exhausting.

Shark Trip

As a roller coaster, the park can feature a ride by SBF Visa, which interestingly, like all other rides on this parcel, was controlled from a central place. The never-ending ride on the Shark Trip turned out to be much faster ride than the classical wacky worms of the same company.

Hamburger Frühlingsdom (2015)

On this years Frühlingsdom, the showman Rasch is presenting a one-of-a-kind Fun House with three different endings. In Fuzzy’s Lachsaloon you can either slide down a winding slide, take the stairs or drop down with a drop tower. This tower is kind of special as you start from the highest point of the ride and just drop down a few meters, therefore the ride also features a floor and quite high railings. It is still a nice one, as it comes quite surprisingly.

Hamburger Winterdom (2014)

Häsler’s take on Disneyland’s long gone special effects dark ride Alien Encounter is just awesome. The show ride built by the showman himself offers a great suspense and has some interesting humour attached to it. The special effects are all to the point and leave you with a big grin on your face when exiting the ride. Not as frightening is the Double Jump Tagada by the showman Petter, which has a similar effect on its riders. Overall it was a very nice Winterdom.
