Silver Star is a steel roller coaster located at Europa-Park, a theme park in Rust, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The coaster has a height of 73 metres (240 ft) and a drop of 67 metres (220 ft), placing it in the hyper coaster category. At the time of its opening, Silver Star was the tallest coaster constructed by Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M). It was later surpassed by Shambhala at PortAventura Park (76 m/249 ft); the record currently belongs to Fury 325 at Carowinds (99 m/325 ft).

Silver Star has 3 trains which seat 36 people each, giving an hourly capacity of 1,750 passengers. The hypercoaster is situated in the “France” area of Europa Park, and it is sponsored by Mercedes-Benz.

Silver Star features no inversions, but many camelback hills:

1. After the first drop, the train travels to the left and up onto the first camelback. It then goes down a smaller drop and then through a second camelback.
2. The train performs a 180° return in the horseshoe element.
3. The train then continues onto another camelback before a mid-course brake-run.
4. A 270° upwards turn brings the train back under the lift hill and onto one last camelback.
5. An S-bend has the train passing by the camera for candid on-ride photos before the final brake run.

Nearly every camelback is fitted with brake trims to regulate the trains’ speed. The original friction-brake trims made the ride uncomfortable for some riders; these were refitted with magnetic trims.
