hyyyper Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Hey guys, today I want to share an awesome photo that was made with a Quadcopter. Credit goes to Rene Sebastiaan, who is really awesome for sharing this picture with us. Not only does it show the basic layout of the new area, you can also see how big it's going to be. When finished, It'll double the outdoor area of Toverland. Better yet, if anything goes as planned, there will another expansion of similar size next year, and the park is also looking at a megacoaster addition for 2015.

RCT3Bross Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 , and the park is also looking at a megacoaster addition for 2015. Read that a while ago. The choose on manufacture still needs to take place but apparently the three they had a look for where: Vekoma, Mack and B&M. I as a B&M fan love to see one in my home country so I'm still hoping on a B&M in 2015. Off coarse a Mack mega coaster makes me happy too if it's as good or better than Blue Fire that was great. Not so big fan for a Vekoma ride the most Vekoma rides I had where shaky and head bangers. So still siting with my finger crossed for finally a B&M in the Netherlands.

TPDave Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Looking good. I'm glad to see more of these getting sold, I'm always amazed to see how few are out there when there are so many spinning wild mice about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilltopper39 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I might have said it here before, but Toverland has slowly turned into a must visit park for me if I ever make it over to Europe. Looks like a great addition to an great little park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster1227 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I love that this ride has on-board audio synced to the action of the ride. Toverland has always intrigued me for its ability to seemingly spring up out of nowhere and consistently be able to add major new attractions over the years. I'm really dying to get to the park and would certainly be willing to go out of my way to visit if I were doing a Europe trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlmereStars Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It has been a while since this thread got some love, so I wanted to give you all some updates on De Magische Vallei (The Magic Valley). The new part of Toverland is turning out to be awesome! I really think Toverland is creating a great atmosphere in this area, and I even think that if Toverland continues to build like this the park will become a serious rival of De Efteling or Phantasialand. For now the park is too small to be considered a big threat to those major parks. But I really think Toverland is heading in a great direction. While you watch the photo's, I recommend listening to this music: click It will be the music for one of the 8 different musical area's in The Magic Valley. Below you can find a youtube video of the Orchestra playing some music (amazing!) Toverland also build a website for The Magic Valley (clickie click), with a lot of photos. But lets move on to some awesome pictures! Concept of the Rapids Ride (source: hclt.nl) Another concept of the ride (hclt.nl) How it looked like in October 2012 (hclt.nl) This shot is a screen from the live webcam, which you can find on magischevallei.nl .. This shot was taken in November 2012 (themepark.nl) It can be snowy in Sevenum The green coaster in the lower left corner is the Boosterbike (themepark.nl) The first rocks are being placed in December of 2012 (Toverland Facebook Page) This is a restaurant (Toverland Facebook page) the restaurant in all its construction glory (magischevallei.nl) Here you can see they are working on the landscaping to make it feel like a real Valley, and of course the playground in the back (magischevallei.nl) This is some artwork and building progress of the theming of the watercarrousel (Toverland facebook page) This shot was posted on twitter in January, it shows the station of the rapids in the back. The height difference will be around 8 meters in some parts of the valley (Toverland Facebook Page, january) They are making some progress (Toverland Facebook Page, January) It has been (and still is) a snowy winter here in the Netherlands, but work on the rapids ride are still going on (magischevallei.nl, january) a nice shot made by themepark.nl with the spinning coaster in the back This webcam pictures was taken 2 weeks ago, you can see a lot of differences with the first shots.. and you'll probably notice that the qeue of Boosterbike is being demolished (themepark.nl) The Magic Valley is set to open in the spring of 2013. They still have a lot to do before the opening, but it looks really promosing! This is a bird that will be placed in de Valtoren (toverland Facebook Page) the watercaroussel is almost finished.

RCT3Bross Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I've been follow this project all long time since I'm going on openings day (Yes there will be pictures ) and I must say that this area sure looks nice. This isn't going to stop for some time since next year they will come with a brand new entrée and in 2015 (maybe) a mega coaster of 20 million €. They planed a lot and will sure to battle against the Efteling soon I think this park can be our (The Dutch) new pride. This park sure is on the right track. Besides love the music in the link just sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Last time I was there, was 2008 and TROY! was the new attraction there. My my, what a difference a few years make! Toverland is really moving along in it's expantion. The new area looks great! Looking forward to seeing future updates on The Magic Valley as they get closer to opening.

Hanskuh Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 The Magic Valley is open to public and we visited it last wednesday. This new area is really amasing and it was above all our expectations. The rapid river (Djengu River) is kinda fast and has a really nice station building. The spinning coaster (Dwervelwind) surprised us the most. This Mack is kinda short but surprisingly powerful, we love it ! We were also pleasantly surprised by Katara, the fountain show. The show is actually very short compared to for instance Aquanura (Efteling) but it's really magnificent. I think the big advantage of Katara is the fact that the public is standig so close next to the water. We also made some videos...
