Wodan : Timbur Coaster • Europa Park

First Drop Theming Pace Too short Harness

Wodan during the day is decent, but it is on a whole other level during the night, my night rides is what I am going to base this review on. For starters, the ride just looks massive and the presentation is phenomenal. The seats are really comfortable, however the restraints are in my opinion not the best, they are still better than S&S Skyrocket restraints though. The ride is very smooth, though I can't compare it to other woodies since this and Mammut at Tripsdrill are the only ones I've done. The out of control feel during the night, due to the pitch black nature is absolutely insane and the pacing of the ride is phenomenal and couldn't be any better. It shreds through the layout at a very high speed and it doesn't get dull, not even once. While it doesn't provide the most intense forces nor the greatest airtime, the pacing and out of control feel alone make this ride absolutely awesome and I can't wait to ride more GCI's in the future. Overall indeed a great coaster and currently my favorite at the Park. Update 2022: I rode it after it's partial retracking that Europapark does every year, additionally I rode it in a refurbished train. I don't exactly know what was included in the train refurbishment, but I know the seats were replaced/fixed. So I rode it and this ride was flying through it's course, the speed felt simply out of control. There were no signs of pacing issues, not even on the hill after the Station fly-by, quite the opposite actually. For the first time, I actually felt the Airtime on that hill which I never did before. It was already very smooth, but now it's even smoother. So this year judging by my rides mid-march, Wodan is running better than ever this year.

Theming Intensity Layout Rattle

The best coaster in Europa Park. It's intense, long, fast and well themed. A bit rattling but a very good experience overall.

Theming Pace Intensity Capacity

The best wooden rollercoaster I have done in my life. Spectacular theming in the queue. Very unexpected intensity, it absolutely blasts through the layout. The first drop is amazing. The pass through the station is a nice surprise. Passing through several tunnels where the rattle of the wood on the wheels is echoing to make it even more intense. This ride is full of aggression and it’s so impressive. And if you’re doing this one in the dark, it’s even more special with two giant flames at the top of the lift hill and limited visibility on the track.

Easily Gci's best coaster!! yes i said it .. its amazing a slight rattle is pretty noticeable on the first drop but it didn't take away from how amazing this coaster was easily top 25!!

First Drop Theming Masterpiece

This is absolutely the best coaster theming that I have ever seen. Layout is soo cool. Its my favourite wooden coaster of all.

Theming Pace Intensity Capacity

My favourite ride at Europa Park: it's the most intense coaster at this park (especially in the evening, the night rides here are nuts!) keeping it's speed very well throughout the whole layout and the area and queue is very nicely themed. Also the ride itself with its logo integrated into the lifthill looks fantastic. The station fly-through is a cool feature - but it's VERY loud! The only con is the capacity, lines are typically quite long compared to other coasters at Europa Park, but it's definiteley worth a longer wait!

Theming Pace Intensity Capacity

It's a well themed woody that's surprisingly intense. Be prepared for long queue lines, luckily it is well themed.

Airtimes Theming Pace Capacity

Wodan is a well-paced ride which results in some good moments of airtime. The ride is pretty smooth and comfortable to ride, especially for a wooden coaster. The capacity is with 1200 riders per hour not so bad but for the best ride at such a big park a bit too small. Luckily the queue is themed well, so it isn't too bad to wait for Wodan.

Intensity Smoothness Layout

For me Wodan is the best coaster in Europa-Park. For a wooden coaster it is very smooth. In the back row the first drop is really intense. Very good layout and very good pace.

Theming Fun Layout

Very nicely themed coaster with a cool layout. The first drop is like dropping into a dark pit of wood, the ride is very fast paced, fast transitions, not too rough and a good intensity. One of the better rides at Europapark. Thrill: 3.75/5

Theming Pace Airtimes

Slightly disappointed in this one. Although the pacing was great and it absolutely hauled through the layout, the ride itself just didn't seem to do very much for me. All those little pops of airtime that I usually love on GCI's just kinda jerked us to the side, giving no airtime at all. The theming, however, was superb and the queue was amazing. Overall, a good coaster but a relatively disappointing GCI

Theming Pace Intensity

Sheer speed and intensity throughout, the themed queue is also just as good as the coaster itself

Theming Pace Intensity

Being this one of my favourite coasters, it is perhaps the park's best themed one, with a gorgeous queue and station, as well as an immersive soudtrack. It's got perfect pacing, flying swiftly through a nonstop layout, and it gets even better each time you ride it. It's the most intense coaster at the park, and undoubtedly the best one, too. I am a massive fan of woodies, and this is by far the best one I've ridden.

First Drop Pace Masterpiece

Wodan never disappoints. Incredible first drop, Great pre-lift section and most importantly perfect pacing. To top it off there is amazing theming and a great soundtrack. Definitly the best ride at the park. -- Also I really like how Europapark got a GCI without the stupid seatbelts under the restraints

Funny wooden !

Good woodie!

4.5/5 Because the queue is very looongg....

Theming Intensity Smoothness

Wodan was a real surprise for me. I'm not exactly what you call a conventional enthusiast with regards wooden coasters, but GCI are consistently an exception. We had the luxury of staying at Europa Park a couple of days, and had plenty of time to take in it's nuances. The hard-to-remember layout, much airtime and laterals handled well all contribute to it being a blast. Night riding with Fenrir roaring into the sky highly recommended (and impressive).

First Drop Theming Masterpiece

What can I say about this coaster except its awesome. The que is ridicules and I mean that in the best way. It has awesome elements throughout the whole que right from the massive gate when you enter. The ride itself is awesome and is only intensified by the fact that you know its wood and you saw the coaster move and bend while queuing up. The first drop is crazy and for it being a coaster the intensity and force in this coaster is unreal. Driven this multiple times in all weather conditions, Sun is nice but Rain also ads and awesome element to it. This is a must do for anyone visiting the park.

Theming Pace Intensity

Amazing theming! That queue line is crazy ! The pace feels amazing, super fast! Nice banking.. length is good.. fast lifthill.. overall pretty solid coaster! Only a 4/5 because i'm not a massive fan of woodies ;)

too short in a positive way ;-)

When it has rained or it is cold, this woodie gets quite intense. Great queue line.
