About Plopsaland Deutschland

Plopsaland Deutschland sits in Ravensburg, Baden-Württemberg, in southern Germany. Opened as Ravensburger Spieleland and later acquired by Studio 100, it's a family-focused park built around the Studio 100 TV characters and Ravensburger's puzzle and game IP. Ride highlights include a variety of family roller coasters, a large water-play area, and several interactive dark rides.

German and Swiss school holidays, plus weekend visits from the Lake Constance tourist region, drive the park's peak crowds. Weekdays in May, June and September are usually dramatically quieter, with queue times on most rides staying short. Check live wait times for the headline attractions, and use our crowd calendar to plan a visit around a Lake Constance holiday for relaxed family days.

About Plopsaland Deutschland Ride Reliability

Which rides at Plopsaland Deutschland break down the most?

The Reliability table above ranks every ride at Plopsaland Deutschland by uptime percentage, total downtime minutes and number of separate closures in the selected month. Rides with higher downtime are usually older, more mechanically complex, or subject to weather-related closures.

What counts as a ride "closure" in these stats?

Any period where the ride's status flipped from operating to closed for more than a couple of minutes counts as a closure. Brief resets and scheduled early morning tests are excluded. A ride with 10+ closures in a month is almost certainly unreliable, not just temporarily out of service.

How do you calculate Plopsaland Deutschland ride uptime?

We track each ride's open/closed status every few minutes throughout the park's operating hours. Uptime percentage = minutes the ride was open divided by the park's total operating minutes. A ride that ran all day shows 100%, one closed half the day shows 50%.

Are some rides at Plopsaland Deutschland more reliable than others?

Almost always. Newer coasters typically have higher uptime in their first year, then stabilise. Classic flat rides and family rides tend to be the most reliable. Intense thrill coasters and water rides often sit toward the bottom of the uptime table because they're more complex and weather-sensitive.

How can I avoid riding something that keeps breaking down?

Check this page before your visit. If a ride you care about has under 80% uptime this month, prioritise it early in the day when reliability is best. Also check live queue times - if a ride shows "Closed" or hasn't moved in 45+ minutes, it's probably down for the afternoon.

Does rain or weather affect Plopsaland Deutschland reliability?

Yes - water rides close automatically in heavy rain, and exposed coasters may close in lightning, high winds or very cold temperatures. Our uptime figures reflect actual operations including weather closures, which is why uptime varies seasonally.
