German theme park Tripsdrill has opened two new Vekoma roller coasters.

The two new additions are a Family Boomerang Coaster named Volldampf (Full Steam Ahead) and a Suspended Thrill Coaster named Hals-über-Kopf (Head Over Heels).

These new rides have intertwined layouts, which means that the tracks of both roller coasters cross several times.

Volldampf runs forwards and backwards and is inspired by traditional song Schwäbischen Eisenbahn (Swabian Railway). The design of the roller coaster train is in the style of a 19th Century steam locomotive.

Hals-über-Kopf tells the local folk story Sieben Schwaben (Seven Swabians). This roller coaster is more than 30 meters high and about 800 meters long, with four inversions, several airtime moments, and a top speed of 80 km/h.

Tripsdrill, Germany's first amusement park, is situated between forests and vineyards. The family-run company offers fun for all ages and is less than an hour's drive from Stuttgart.

100 original attractions have been created here since 1929, including the wooden roller coaster Mammut and the launched roller coaster Karacho – just two of the highlights for adults and older children. But there's also plenty for the little ones in Tripsdrill, since many of the attractions are designed specifically for them.
