Eagle Fortress

Eagle Fortress, Suspended roller coaster at Everland, South Korea

Eagle Fortress was a steel suspended roller coaster at Everland in South Korea, built by Arrow Dynamics with a 3,200 ft track, the longest suspended coaster the company produced. Riders hung beneath the rails in trains whose front car was shaped like an eagle's head, and the route ran fast through forest without special twisting track sections.

Eagle Fortress opened on 8 September 1992 as Asia's first suspended roller coaster, built by American manufacturer Arrow Dynamics. It closed permanently in January 2009, after a worker maintaining the ride died in an accident on 3 November 2008. Demolition began in September 2014, and since 29 March 2019 the site has been a garden called Haneul Jeongwon-gil.

The ride's trains were shaped like an eagle's head at the front, and the track ran fast through forest without any of the special high-rotation track sections used on other coasters. It was Asia's first suspended roller coaster, and before T Express opened it drew enough visitors that queues were long. After closing in January 2009, its ticket booth served as a shade awning for five years.

Eagle Fortress no longer exists and cannot be visited at the park. Those visiting Everland today will find other attractions in its place, so it is worth checking the current park map before planning a route.

Eagle Fortress was the longest suspended coaster Arrow Dynamics ever built, with a 3,200 ft track, and one of the company's last such rides before its 2002 bankruptcy. After closing in January 2009, its ticket booth served as a shade awning for five years before demolition began in September 2014.
