Quick Photoshop... Looks like it might have one of those back-and-forth launches like that new Intamin in China. -

In a survey, the park has unveiled 3 possible new rides for 2017: Pégase - possibly a Gerstlauer Family Coaster with a backwards section - the photo shows - themed to Pegasus, and located in the Greek area of the park - station is called "Gare Montparnos" - during the ride you'll accidentally enter Medusa's Temple... and you'll be launched backwards to escape her curse Le Vol de Thor - a B&M Flying Coaster - themed to Thor, the god of thunder - located in the Viking area of the park Crocos - the previously announced Zamperla Suspended Windshear - designed by "Amonbofis" to bring visitors as close as possible to Cleopatra's crocodiles - water and fire effects, crocodile animatronics - located in the park's Egypt area source: Compagnie des Alpes -

Phantasialand Discussion Thread
BDG replied to roeterich's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm not even sure there will a path there. Those "beams" look heavily themed, which they wouldn't be if they were going to be covered up with a path. Not to mention it wouldn't be very safe, as those beams are only decorative with "chicken wire" inside: Here's an actual bridge/path in the area. The path directly connected to the steel structure, and no theming whatsoever: -

Two new rides for 2016: Der Kleine Zar ("The Little Tsar") - a kiddie coaster, but adults will also be allowed to ride - themed just like the big coasters of the park - with a unique soundtrack - located in the middle of the park, near Novgorod Hansa-Flieger ("Hansa Flyer") - a wave swinger - in the entrance area of the park No further details unfortunately. source: Hansa-Park -

1. Very little. Maybe a little on the first drop, but that's about it. It's a very smooth layout. On the other hand, the park's mine train is full of sudden drops and directional changes. Maybe consider skipping that one. 2. The exact opposite of "that weird stomach feeling" you don't like. 3. You're not going to be sick. Don't skip breakfast though, and maybe avoid riding it early in the morning, give your body some time to wake up. 4. If you like spinning coasters, don't forget the indoor Winjas-coasters. Be sure to ride both, as they have different layouts. -

New artwork. Turns out the wooden coaster won't be the only new thing next season! There will be also be a Zamperla Barnyard, a new food point and new toilets. And the park's existing wild mouse coaster will be re-themed to fit the new area. Poster: source: Walibi Rhône-Alpes -
