      And if I'm not mistaken it can operate only on one train. The park has another train but that's only to reduce the downtime as it's supposed to be open close to all year around.

    This is actually my homepark and whilst I hear second handedly it can sometimes get crowded, I never experienced it myself. Somehow I always pick a Sunday on which it's 30+°C outside (= hot!) and literally nobody's there!
    Best to do on a hot day is to stand in expedition zork's splash zone or go under the waterfall of djengu river, make sure to get completely soaked, and then ride Fenix. The warm wind it generates makes the water evaporate, which cools you down big time!

    7:30 they retrack a part of troy every year. Its was this rough because of the heat. The wheels are like standing at a 10 degrees angel on the track because of the tempertures. its an older GCI and its not the smoothest but its also far away from unbarable imo.

    I love this park. I went to this for the first time during may break this year. Luckily the park was extremely empty because it was cloudy and a little bit of rain. I loved Fēnix so much that I went on it 8 times in a row and once I then decided that it was enough I could feel my feet constantly tickeling due to the amount of blood that was in them. But generally the theming of this park is so well done. Especially the new are they just added. I havent been there in person yet but I have seen it during construction and its so awesome how they added a Sky fly in the Helix of Fēnix its so awesome.

    I've ridden Troy this fall and I didn't mind the roughness actually thought it was the perfect amount, just what I want from a wooden coaster, proper shaking but not painful in any way.
    My second favourite woodie after Colossos.

    • @cantinadudes
      @cantinadudes ปีที่แล้ว

      Kinda same. Yeah its rough but thats kinda the fun of it. The fact that it feels so raw makes it unique (aside from being out of wood) and i feel like tsking that away kinda takes away some of what makes it special.
      Well maybe i'm just a bit too hardened off when it comes to wooden coasters since my home park is movie park in germany and their wooden coaster is... really painful. Like if Troy was rocky, Movie parks wooden coaster would be straight up norwegian black metal from the 80's and 90's. The first time i rode it, i'm 99% convinced the car i was in actually broke because it made such weird sounds and the ride was closed for the day after i got off. I really felt like it was just a disguised torture device. Troy is butter smooth in comparision

    Off-Topic: That actually reminded me that you also can get pieces of the old Colossos track in Heide-Park. Why didn't you visit Heide Park? On Topic: Toverland is such a lovely place. Hope they build a couple more coasters after the new flat rides that are coming. We had like 25 cars parked there when we went last September .. so we literally tried every seat on Fenix.

  • @CaptainAlbatross
    @CaptainAlbatross 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    We actually visit themeparks on hot days on purpose. It's delightfully quiet on those days, and even though it's handy to keep a bottle of deodorant in your bag we always have great days. Last week I was in Toverland as well and had almost the same experience. Fenix, Troy and Dwervelwind were walk-ons all through the day and we've never been in line for more than 15 minutes. Mind you, that was absolute high-season in the middle of school holidays. We had the same experiences at Efteling (although a bit more crowded) and Movie Park Germany.
    Completely agree on Troy, I remember it as being smooth 10 years ago but jeez, I was thrown around a lot. Not much fun. Retrack or RMC it please.
