Abismo arrived in 2006 for Parque de Atracciones de Madrid, a long-established city park set in the Casa de Campo. For the visitor coming out from central Madrid, it brought a very modern piece of steel engineering to a green and historic corner of the capital. es.wikipedia.org· parquedeatracciones.es

The ride’s distinction is found before the great rush begins. Its lift carries the train upward to 49 metres and turns the travellers upside down, a spectacle the park notes as one of the few lift inversions of its kind. parquedeatracciones.es

From there, Abismo sends its passengers through the Maquinismo area at up to 105 km/h. The park places it behind La Lanzadera and Tarántula, where visitors may pause to watch the train make its severe little ceremony above the midway. parquedeatracciones.es

The park itself presents Abismo as one of its most demanding rides, a modern companion to the older pleasures of Madrid’s amusement park. It is a small monument with a city address: steel, speed, and a pause at the top for the brave visitor to look out over Madrid. parquedeatracciones.es· parquedeatracciones.es
