So I went to Parque de Attractions de Madrid the other week and well, it was an "interesting" experience.

Lets start.

The Batan Station Entrance

My first impressions of the park was very well maintained except that there was a large amount of litter before the ticket counters.

Impressed with the initial theming. Not bad.

First ride of the day, TNT Tren de la Mina, a Gerstlauer Mine Train.

It was a fun and forceful ride. I completely underestimated it.

A decent ride but nothing special about it except the hang and air time. Restraints of course were uncomfortable especially in the hang time.

A rough invert but enjoyable. It was running 1 train at a time which led to long lines. 40 min even with speedy pass.

This brings me to something I wanted to say about Speedy Pass. Speedy Pass is worth the money during the summer when the lines stretch out to the main paths. The rides, however, run with one train at a time no matter the amount of riders waiting. Don't expect short waits with Speedy Pass.

So that were all the rides I rode. Here some pics of the park.

So that concludes the day. PDAM isn't a bad park, however, somethings they could improve on are the cleanliness of the park and the guest efficiency. But overall an enjoyable experience.

Thanks for reading.
 
I agree that the Maurer X-Car restraints are better with a little belly working as a cushion :wink:
