Photo TR: Hanno visits Schwaben Park

It has been an interesting weekend.

After visiting two smaller parks in Holland it was time to make the drive to a park in Germany.

I decided to visit Schwaben Park. It was one of those parks (for me) that I still wanted to visit.

Had a fun time at the park which is about an hour from Tripsdrill.

Just a few highlights:

Force One has a fitting name as it keeps up speed pretty good till the end. The park also has a kiddie and a fun Schwarzkopf wildcat called Himalayabahn.

Who knows.. maybe one day i'll be back for another visit.

Picture time

Looks great, other than it's a Pepsi Park!

Yay for Bobkarts!

Thanks for sharing another park I had no clue existed. Love these little European parks.

Looks great, other than it's a Pepsi Park!

yeah.. the umbrella's were Pepsi.. but they were selling Coke

^LOL! That's even better then! Means they picked up some cheap or free Pepsi crap but are serving the good stuff!

Hanno - thanks for a new park to add to the Park Index. I attempted to include Schwaben in my 2010 plans when they opened Force One, but it wasn't possible with my tight time constraints.

You're welcome

Might visit this one day! Still a lot of credits to do around that part of Germany...

Great pics as always, Hanno!

The facial expression of the girl in the green is priceless!

Glad to see Force One is doing well for this park!

Nice TR (as usual), Hanno!

Have you ever been to Erlebnispark Geiselwind (in between Nuremberg and Munich)?

^Geiselwind is on my (someday) to-do list

Alright!

You'll love it. "Old school" park with 3 credits (Vekoma Boomerang, Zierer Spinning Coaster, Maurer Wild Mouse), an nice assortment of HUSS flat rides (Enterprise, Condor, Ranger, Break Dance, ...) plus a HUSS freefall tower and many self operated never-in-america rides made by Heege (Duelling Nautic Jets, Zipline, ...).
