Hi everyone,

Another trip report from one of those nice european parks.

This park is included in my Walibi World annual pass so it was worth it to check this park out again.

There is a Vekoma looper, a kiddie coaster and Sewer Rat.


On to the pictures.....

Nice report!
That kiddie coaster seemed a lot like The Rat at Lightwater Valley; great theming, okay coaster.

I love the small European parks. Most of them I've visited with TPR have had really good theming similar to what's shown in your TR. Thanks for the photos and great TR!

Thanks for the comments.

The queue area for Sewer Rat is indeed amazing. It kinda reminded me of the Fright Nights at Walibi World except the actors.

Great TR Hans.

A park I should visit again.

And talking about the Fright Nights, I saw on their website that they announce more info about the info next Friday. If they put the tickets online, I will buy tickets immediately.
