Efteling’s New Coaster: Themed Around Coal?

Efteling recently shared the news that next year they would unveil a new coaster.  Since then, several Efteling fan sites have reported that the new coaster will be themed around a Dutch coal mine.  It is also believed that it will be located behind the Flying Dutchman.

More information will undoubtedly emerge in the coming months.  After all, the ride is said to be ready for next year, and there is much work to be done!

Oh, and as a side note, when we brought you the news of the new coaster initially, we did read that the drop was going to be 37ft high, so that’s what we posted too.  What it really is, is 37 METRES, of course!  So about a 120ft drop.  That’s slightly more hair-raising!  In comparison, Oblivion at Alton Towers which is the same type of ride, has a 65ft drop.  That’s quite a difference between the two.

It’s starting to sound more exciting 😀

We’ll have some more news when it surfaces.

Our friends at Mushroom Productions recently shared a video with us that they recorded on Joris en de Draak.  This has to be one of the only rides where it is more fun to ride separately from the rest of your group, so you can race each other to the end!

When you describe Efteling to someone, you probably first mention the fairy tales in a forest, I know I do.  What most people who are not familiar with Efteling do not know, is that there are some more hair-raising rides included in the boundaries of the park.  Take Python for example:

Not for the faint hearted!
