Toverland Discussion Thread

[Dragon KhanWhen I grow up, I want to breed donkeys!]

I was also pleasantly surprised this summer. It was my first visit, and I liked it a lot. Troy is excellent, but definitely NOT the best GCI imho... I much prefered Prowler and have a soft spot for Renegade too. But this seems like a good addition to the park. What about the old Batman clone dream ? Was it just rumour or can we still expect a real THRILL coaster in the future ? The park does NOT need that, I mean, but that's probably something that would get ME coming back. (I don't think they care though lol) Nice original little rides in this park. One fun "discovery" for me was the powered bobsled pictured below

I love this park!

The time we spent here on the TPR 2008 tour was wonderful.

The new additions keep making this park better and better
for re-visits, etc.

Must get back here.

TROY!

[MayTheGForceBeWithYouStar Wars is gay.]

This is great news! A coaster like Sierra Sidewinder or Twist will be a perfect fit for this park.

I managed to drop by Toverland this afternoon and the re-theming of the restaurant is in full swing. And WOW, this is damn-shizz impressive stuff. If you thought the themeing at Troy was good, this is even better. Those crappy pics from me don't do justice on how good this looks in person. And it's not even finished!

Also, at the other corner of the first building, a new slab of concrete has be poured, on the place where a wooden play-castle used to be.

And for Troy's sake, there is also a picture of Troy at the end (don't forget to vote in Mitch's poll!)

I read that this is going to be a clone of Twist at Le Pal, wich is a good thing if you ask me.

Toverland is working on a new Spinning Coaster for fall 2012, but is working on other projects too.
They are asking a permit to add a Hafema Rapid, an Heege Tower, a restaurant and a 'duckmill'. There are rumours they are starting the construction works for an hotel this month.

A hotel by Toverland would be an excellent addition.

Duckmill? What's a duckmill?

Doesn't matter. Great park.
And soon a hotel, too!
Need to go back there again.

[AstroDanI teach at the school of donkey!]

A hotel? Isn't that a bit much - yet?

It's a cool place, but it's barely a full day at present.

[Nrthwndbitchbikerbearhousewife]

I think it's kind of cool that you can have the use
of a nice new hotel right by the park, to relax in,
get away from crowds, and enjoy in addition to the park itself.

There are many times, during a TPR Tour, we have arrived
in the late evening at a park's host hotel. We used it for the
night's sleep, then checked out that morning and did the park,
and then continued on to our next destination. Simple, but
it was nice to have the hotel right there when we needed it.

Toverland's new hotel will be a great stopover for those who need it,
I am sure. Or one to enjoy on it's own, too. Hotels can be as
much fun as visiting the park itself, yes? (i.e. Colossus at Europa).
