    Description

    Dschungel-Floßfahrt is German for ''Jungle Raft Ride''. It featured mostly outdoor scenes including an African village and animals in and around the water. There was a cave near the end in which dark ride scenes featuring various animals and a temple could be found.

    History

    The ride system of Dschungel-Floßfahrt was reused and originally opened with a Finnish theme in 1978. The jungle theme was introduced in 1992. The decorations inside the tunnel were last changed in 2000, but the jungle theme remained.

    Rethemed versions:

    • Finnische Floßfahrt (1978-1991)
    • Dschungel-Floßfahrt (1992-2022)

    The ride closed after the winter of 2021-2022 to be rethemed to an Austrian theme following controversy about the ride's depiction of African people. It reopened in the spring of 2022 as Josefinas kaiserliche Zauberreise, the dark ride section was removed.
