Design

Elements

The ride's layout is an almost exact copy of Alpenexpress "Enzian" at Europa-Park, it only features small differences, mainly at the end of the ride. Intrestingly enough; both rides feature a themed cave around the second helix.

Colour scheme

Brown track and green supports.

Trains

Single train with 10 cars. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows, except for the front car which has a single row, for a total of 38 riders per train.
