Poland: New alpine coaster opened at former ski lift site
The new attraction was built on the site of a former ski lift. Adventure seekers can enjoy a thrilling track stretching nearly 750 meters through the mountain landscape.
The ride delivers a true roller-coaster experience, with sleds first racing just above the treetops before moments later soaring up to 15 meters above the ground.
The route features a series of spectacular elements, including 360-degree and 720-degree turns, as well as wide curves and rapid changes of direction.

Although the Salamandra Alpine Coaster can reach speeds of up to 40 km/h, each rider can adjust the pace individually using the built-in braking system.
The two-seater sleds, inspired by the colors and appearance of the fire salamander, are designed to be enjoyed by both families and couples, offering a unique year-round adventure in the heart of the Beskids.
Safety was also a key focus in the design of the system: The safety harnesses cannot be released during the ride. In addition, an intelligent distance control system automatically maintains a safe gap between sleds, eliminating the risk of collisions on the track.
