Fēnix is a steel Wing Coaster in the Dutch theme park Toverland . The roller coaster will open on Saturday , July 7, 2018 , in the Avalon themed area. Fēnix is the first Wing Coaster in the Benelux , the fifth roller coaster in Toverland amusement park and the first attraction in the park with inversions. The attraction's name refers to the Phoenix , a mythical bird. The theme around the attraction is Celtic mythology.
The station building of the roller coaster is completely covered and elaborately decorated. The ground floor of the station building also serves as the dark ride section of the Merlin's Quest attraction . During the 813 meters long ride, the train goes through three inversions and can reach a top speed of 95 km/h.
With a cost of €13 million, the roller coaster is one of the most expensive amusement park attractions in the Netherlands.
In 2014, the director indicated in an interview with a fan site that there were a mega roller coaster in the future. However, the park did not provide any further details.
In 2017, Amusement Park Toverland announced that two theme areas will be opened in 2018: Port Laguna and Avalon. The Avalon theme area will house the Fenix roller coaster, built on and around the former fishing pond north of the park. Before construction could begin, the pond had to be completely drained. Finally, on January 23, 2018 , the first track of the roller coaster was placed. This was placed in the station building. At the end of March, the installation and assembly of the roller coaster tracks outside the station building began in order to reach the highest point of 40 meters on 18 April. The roller coaster was completed on May 7 and on June 4, after closing time, the first test ride with dummies was made. The amusement park made a behind-the-scenes documentary of the entire construction . In the week before the opening, the new themed area was opened for personnel, media and other invited guests, among others.
During the winter break between 2018 and 2019, a dark ride scene was added to the roller coaster between the station and the lift. This scene is all about the ice witch Morgana . Morgana has been transformed into a dragon here. The dragon can be seen as animatronic together with her followers who are depicted as skeletons with monks' hoods . These followers were later removed because they did not meet the quality requirements that visitors to the park expect.
