EftelWesley shared a video of the building site today:


They're mounting the themed structure on the pillar of Dragonwatch.

And another video of EftelWesley appeared on YouTube, about the testing of Pixarus:

The caption from the article says:

"This week, family droptower Dragonwatch is taking shape. 🤩🏗️ This is how, as we speak, the gigantic platforms are attached to the drop tower at a height of 27 meters."

It was posted this morning.

Question, is Fenix now back open or still closed for this work? We're thinking of going but not if Fenix is down.
 
I'm really excited for these new additions, we made our first visit to the park on the bank holiday weekend earlier this month (Maximus Blitz Bahn was a surprising hit) and whilst we enjoyed our day, we did feel the park was somewhat lacking in its line up, it just needed a few more decent rides. This really should fill that space quite well.

I'm really keen to see what the parks next steps are too, it's clear the space between the entrance and Avalon is going to be the best expansion.
 
It looks fantastic. With the Skyfly within the helix, they’ve pulled off something I could have only dreamed about doing in rollercoaster tycoon, it’s perfectly done.

Also great to see the amount of greenery throughout the area, and the immersive touches that all make a difference, eg the ornate top of the parachute tower, the actual thatch on roofs, or the doors in the stone wall to the little dock by the river underneath the Skyfly/coaster helix.
 
Some pictures from Facebook. I am going to the family and friends opening on 29 juni

There’s an entrance/exit tunnel that starts underneath Fēnix’s airtime hill. You can see it on the second image in the post above.
I got that... I was merely referencing the fact that it looks like there's one patch that would need to be used for both ingress and egress of the ride. Meaning that it'd have to be split into two, creating two VERY narrow paths, and a really short queue line.

The pad is indeed split in 2 the exit is the biggest part of this path for people whit a disability. The queue it self is to narrow for 2 people. There can only stand 1 people

Which you are basing on your experience of never having queued for this ride? That little bit of path on the very left with those large rocks is the narrowest path of the adjacent pathway, and that is still about 2.5 meters wide. You can compare that directly to the queue and the exit pathway, which are about the same width. It is going to be fine.

Also, at the risk of being a douchebag, but a Gerstlauer SkyFly probably demands all four extremities to be fully functioning for it to be a proper ride experience, and you can bet that the ride will have a wheelchair lift regardless.

Im basing my experience on what Toverland had said about this expansion. In the tour for YouTubers they have said this here is a video its in Dutch but at 3.04 he is making the hand signal where the path is going to be.

Edit: here is a better video look at

25.00 you can see the holes for the fences
