Baron 1898 is open for 6 months and Efteling has already started construction on a new ride!

Image

Symbolica is the name of this project.

Price: 35 million euros / 38 million dollars

Efteling confirmed on their website the ride will have interactive elements and that the ride will have 3 different routes to take. (Maybe choosing a route will be an interactive element?)

The Efteling community is suspecting a trackless system.

Fencing has already gone up.

Well that was out of nowhere. Knowing Efteling this will be beautiful. I have high hopes for this!

^^ I can see a mini Walt Disney-like statue. That completely fits in with the park stuff. :)

Personal coaster count as of 3/2025 -- 222
"500" perhaps by the end of this year.
I will be a Thai citizen if possible in a few years.

Wow a 38 million dollar dark ride. Really shows who the target audience is!

Efteling is, I think, becoming an extreme thrill park. :)

Not really. And it probably never will. With only a few "Thrill" rides it doesn't make it an extreme thrill park. It will remain a family park. Even Baron might be a B&M, but it's far from intense or extreme. It's perfect for all general audiences. :)

^ The ride will be placed exactly in the middle of the park at the main square (just like Disney builds their castles in the middle of their parks). So it should become a really good ride, else they will fail by having a bad/mediocre ride as their 'Disney castle'.
