Der Schwur des Kärnan • Hansa Park

Lap Bar Nice surprise! Intensity Rattle

Oh Shit. Now that's some intense ride right there. The cue line in the castle is incredible, probably the best cue I've ever seen in a non-major-brand-park in Europe. Being chosen randomly for the rows adds to the excitement factor and I like it, though you should hope for front row! This is where the coaster packs the most punch after the drop. At first you are pulled up vertically into the tower, where a pre-show begins. Unfortunately, there is too much reverb to understand what is being said, which does take away from this part of the ride. You do the backwards drop (better than expected, but starting too soft for a real drop feeling) and then rise to the top and into the first drop. It is best experienced in the back, but isn't bad in the front either. Not my favourite drop, but very good for sure. You then shoot out into broad daylight getting some good Gs in the valley. As if that wasn't intense enough, we once had a ride where it had started to rain in the meantime and we were in pain because of the impact of the drops, which coincidentally was probably one of the most intense rides I have ever had. The heart-shaped element coming up next is great, the change of direction at the first peak being a violent highlight in the front left. The beginning of the low-to-the-ground-part that follows is my favourite part of the ride, it is stupidly intense. The one airtime hill in the layout also delivers. Unfortunately, the coaster slows down significantly in its final 300m or so, failing to give you that slamming-into-the-brakes kind-of euphoria. What follows is a very slow heartline roll in the dark (fun) and a surprising photo point, when you are basically already rolling back into the station. World-class ride with world-class theming and world-class intensity in its first two thirds. Ride is not supersmooth, but certainly fine. Amazing overall, the pre-show can get tiring when reriding.

Kärnan is an extremely intense ride with great transitions and airtime. On top of that, having such a fantastic ride with such good theming is rare, making it a truly unique and exciting coaster.

Airtimes Masterpiece Intensity Rattle

So weird, yet exhilarating! Kärnan is really a one of a kind ride, very intense and relentless. It has several good pops of airtime, crazy snappy turns and an excellent drop to top it off!
