The ‘’’Winja’’’ rollercoasters are located in Phantasialand in Bruhl. They have the additional names of ‘Fear’ and ‘Force’ and they are spinning coasters which means their cars are able to rotate around their own axis. The fact that the attraction is located indoors in the Wurze Hall means that it can run regardless of the outside weather conditions. Approximatly half the trip takes place out in the open hall, the other half takes place in the dark.
The ‘Winja’s’ have 14 cars each with a capacity of 4 persons (2 rows of 2). Two people start forward and the other two backwards, this makes no difference however as the ride rotates whilst in operation. Riders must be at least 1.30m to ride. The fact that the rollercoaster not only goes round the track but also rotates while doing so gives the riders effects that they are unused to!
