[@mitchellries256]

I can't wait to hear the remaining park reviews from Europe. This was definitely a great start.

[@ediblenebulas1164]

Loved this so much! Been really enjoying your channel since I discovered you a few months back. Looking forward to the other park reviews 😁✌️

[@-Tim-]

Great review. Really liked how you structured it. Can’t wait for more to come👍

[@CoasterDash]

Thanks Tim!!

I found Legendia somewhat similar to Slagharen. A motley collection of classics and hand-me-downs, anchored by one modern signature thrill coaster. Hand on heart, Slagharen is the better park, but I'm glad I've experienced Legendia. That whole day stands as one of my fondest memories from last year.

[@CoasterDash]

I’d absolutely agree with this! I also found Slagharen to be the better park, but not by much

[@skyguyismyguyr12turn]

When CoasterDash rides every single roller coaster in the world, this is what I expect his top 10 to be(alphabetical order):
Dinoconda
Eejanaika
Fury 325
Intimidator 305
Jurassic World Velocicoaster
The Ride to Happiness
Skyrush
Steel Vengeance
The Voyage
Zadra

[@Dackery.]

I don't think CD is going to like Eejanaika as much as you think.

[@skyguyismyguyr12turn]

@@Dackery. What? But he thinks X2 is the best coaster in the state, and there's Dinoconda! What gives?

[@Dackery.]

@@skyguyismyguyr12turn Touche.

[@gemmachaos]

I wonder if Legendia ever gets crowds. EL was absolutely slammed on my visit in June, Legendia was empty as you like.

[@milczix777]

longest wait for me in 2022 for lech was around 15 mins, i had a season pass

[@gemmachaos]

@@milczix777 Good to know it does get a wait.

[@destroyraccoon]

it's THE amusement park of my childhood. It's kinda junky because it's old - first opened in 1959 - and it's a product of PRL - the socialist Poland. Most of the attractions were bought second-hand - the looping coaster is originally from UK, built in 1984. The water slide you rode is from the 60s lol. It got name change and major renovations in 2017. It was previously known simply as Śląskie Wesołe Miasteczko (Silesian Amusment Park - Katowice is the capital of Silesia region) Lech and a couple of new rides were added, some were scraped, and some got the questionable facelifts, and the new weird English names, to make the park more "international".

[@-Tim-]

Yeah Legendia is also one of the weirdest parks I’ve ever visited. While it has a beautiful setting with the huge lake in the center, it just feels weird walking around with half of the attractions you see being closed or not even able to operate. Besides Lech Coaster (which is of course the star of this park), they also have a trackless, shooting Dark Ride with some really good theming. And this is what I find really weird. Lech Coaster and this Dark Ride just don’t fit into this place, if you look at the rest of Legendia. Ok I’m not complaining (both rides and especially Lech are phenomenal), but it just feels weird. I’ve been to this park a few times now and each time there was almost nobody in the park (something you also said in your review), which for a park of this size and the easy accessibility is kinda scary. To wrap things up Legendia is a place that has a atmosphere like no other theme park and something that you can’t really describe until you go there for yourself. I hope that this park has a bright future (because their recent investments (Lech and the Dark Ride) actually were really good), but only time will tell I guess and honestly I can’t see them operating their park like this for the next years.
(Sorry if I did some grammar mistakes, English is not my native language and I’m very tired typing this)

Did the operators at Lech Coaster wait a while until they had a full station? When it was quiet in 2021, they would wait 10-15 minutes in between dispatches unless they had a pretty full train. So I was thankful more people came later in the day.
As for an operator riding with you, I've had that happen at Kennywood on Thunderbolt if they can't find another solo rider to go with you. Same thing has happened at Cyclone at Luna Park on a quiet day since they need the whole front car filled to send it.

[@CoasterDash]

During my visit, they didn’t wait to fill the train. I wonder why they had a change in policy.

[@d4m4s74]

One more week to go

[@extrakubik4123]

It's in Chorzów? I've been thinking it's in Katowice. Overall only worth to visit the park becouse of Lech coaster

[@CoasterDash]

Yes, I had a viewer correct me on this once. Chorzów is literally right next to Katowice so there’s little difference

[@extrakubik4123]

@@CoasterDash Yeah I made a small research on it but it is like directly in the borders of these two cities 🤣
