Coaster reviews
-
Lap Bar Intensity Hangtime Layout
This ride packs quite a punch, the forces in the valley are very high. Additionally, the long upside down passage is great fun with lapbars only, but the layout could have been longer and better (looking at Abismo...)
-
Fun Capacity Intensity
The ride looks more interesting than it actually is and lines are typically quite long, but it is still fun because of the unusual seats, the possibility to manually spin the gondola and the overall uniqueness!
-
Fun Smoothness
A classic Wildcat which is always great fun!
-
Pace Intensity Layout Rattle
On this coaster, opinions differ widely - I personally really like it: it is a relentless thrillride that stands out of the variety of german rollercoasters. The launch, the inside top hat and the loop are quite forceful, but in fact, they are just the beginning of a white-knuckle ride! The following strange helix provides very high and long-lasting G-forces which led to a greyout at every single ride I took (it was a very hot day, over 30 degrees!) and the rest of the layout is short, but stuffed with many snappy turns and other elements coming in one tour without any pauses in between. This ride is definetely not smooth, but with the comfortable lap bars there wasn't any headbanging, so the rattle was still bearable. Theming in the queue was quite good and the entire ride is beautifully embedded in the landscape, so it is also nice to look at. For me, this ride is the most intense rollercoaster in Germany and I would recommend it to every thrillseeker around!

Inversions Fun Intensity Discomfort
Compared to other old-style Vekoma rides, this ride runs okay, there might me a little headbanging or some rattle, but nothing too dramatic. All in all, it is alright and the best coaster in the entire park (what is in fact no big deal!)
-
Discomfort
Considering this is the former "Holly's Wilde Autofahrt", the coaster is way better than before. Nevertheless, the cars are still quite uncomfortable and the brakes hit quite hard (at least there are signs warning against them!)
-
Rattle Headbanging Discomfort
Luckily, Holiday Park removed this piece of scrap metal: additionally to the very uncomfortable cars, it ran awfully rough, every turn gave you bruises and the brakes were hitting that hard it made the safety bar punch into the stomach. Lines were often very long due to the low capacity, the Tabaluga coaster in the hall is way better!
-
Location Fun Smoothness
This bobsled runs really smooth and provides great fun, but the panoramic view to the valley is gorgeous.
-
Theming Discomfort
This might be the best themed standard mouse coaster, but the ride itself is not great: the brakes hit really hard and the small cars are uncomfortable.
-
Theming Intensity Hangtime
This ride was a positive surprise - nicely themed and quite intense. The launch is not the strongest, but the backwards part provides nice hangtime which is especially fun with those comfortable seats and lap bars. The rest of the layout is crisp and snappy, especually the dive loop is quite whippy and great fun. There might be a slight rattle, but it doesn't mind me, I still really like Gold Rush!
-
Fun Smoothness Layout Theming
A very compact layout, but for a family coaster, some turns are surprisingly whippy but it still runs smooth like glass and provides great fun. There is no theming at all, but maybe it will come in the future...
-
Theming Nice surprise! Fun
A really good family coaster: first of all, the theming was surprisingly good considering the small size of the park, it was on a high level from the queue line to the darkride section. And the ride itself was also good fun for every age. I highly recommend this ride to every coaster enthusiast around Berlin, with a visit at Karl's you can't go wrong.
-
Location Fun Discomfort
In my opinion, the ride was not as bad as many people said: Yes, the layout was not the most creative, the restraints were not really comfortable and there was a rattle during the ride, but regarding the respectable age, the riding comfort was still okay. I rode this oldtimer some months before closure (2013) and I even liked it.
-
Comfort Fun
For a boomerang, this one runs comparably smooth and especially the backwards inversions only with lapbars feel a little strange, but overall, it's great fun!
-
Theming Nice surprise! Fun Intensity
The coaster itself is a rather slow spinning coaster comparable to a wild mouse, so it would be nothing special, BUT it is in a dark hall with laser effecs and loud electronic music so it feels like a rave. Even the queue has some funhouse-style elements, so the setting is definetely the highlight of this ride!
-
Nice surprise! Intensity Smoothness
This was my favourite rollercoaster at the Prater: it might not look spectacular, but the ride is a real surprise! First of all, it runs very smooth and especially the tight turns provide high G-forces. Combined with the unusual bobsled-like cars, this unique coaster is plenty of fun and definetely worth a ride!
-
Theming Fun Intensity
The lack of intensity can be forgiven in any case for this charming classic, especially the artificial mountain scenery looks very nice.
-
Fun
For a spinning mouse coaster, this one runs pretty good and with an uneven loading of the gondola, you can get a very fast spin! Especially the latter was great fun in a group!
-
Layout Rattle
At the first glance, this coaster looks nice with its relatively large size and an interesting layout. But unfortunately, it runs quite rough!
-
Nice surprise! Fun Dead spots Layout
This rather unusual coaster was a rather positive surprise: It looks quite rustic from the outside, but was running surprisingly well, there was no major rattle. The harnesses are quite weird because many people will have quite much space between this metal shoulder harness thing. Layout is, except of the first drop and the two nice loopings nothing special, but overall, this ride is alright because of its uniqueness.
-
Smoothness Capacity Disappointing! Dead spots
Let's start with the positive aspects: the ride runs quite smooth and the elevator lift is a nice gimmick. But overall, it looks way more impressing than it actually is, especially the first drop is not really intense and the other coaster section is also nothing spectacular. whether you get wet seems to be a matter of luck here, some got drenched while I and some other riders stayed almost completely dry on a quite warm day. Capacity is also rather poor, the line at my visit was quite long (and it wasn't a crowded day!)
-
Nice surprise! Smoothness Layout
A small but sweet launch coaster! The trains and restraints are very comfortable, and ride itself is not very intense, but provides great fun. In this rather short layout, there is a great variety of nice elements, so overall, there is not really something to complain about. At my visit, only one train was running (the other one was in maintance), so there were rather long waiting times...
-
Nice surprise! Comfort Smoothness Capacity
This ride was surprisingly good: for a family coaster, it is quite fast-paced and has some nice forces. The trains are very comfortable and the ride runs very smooth. Unfortunately, there is only one train, so the lines are often very long and the locker for your bags doesn't make any sense.
-
Nice surprise! Fun Layout
This is the best SLC I've been on so far: The restraints are way better than those standard OSTR's, so any headbanging is eliminatet and for this type, the ride runs comparably well. There might be a slight rattle, but far less extreme than on other SLC's. I even say I had fun riding this coaster and would ride it again!

-
Rattle Discomfort
Quite uncomfortable and rattly for a Mack Wild Mouse...
-
Airtimes Comfort Intensity
The absolute highlight of Nigloland! This Mack Megacoaster with the very comfortable "Blue Fire"-style trains provides a surprisingly intense ride: the first turn after the drop provides very high G-forces, and the layout has plenty of airtime, the straight big hill is one of the best airtime moments I ever had on a coaster, especially in the front row! The ride runs pretty smooth and the station house is nicely themed. In my opinion, this coaster is absolutely outstanding and worth a longer trip!
-
Smoothness Theming Layout
It looks like every other wild mouse, but it's probably the smoothest of its kind out there.
-
Theming Fun
After the final lap, the slow passage even provides strange lateral hangtime. Overall, a nice family ride.
-
Intensity Layout Duration Discomfort
This little brother of Eurosat was surprisingly intense, has a cool layout in the darkness and the oldschool setting with a fitting soundtrack is quite nice. Unfortunately, those cars are really narrow and rather uncomfortable. But overall, the second highlight coaster in the park!
