Officials say the ride is North America’s first all-indoor straddle coaster.

DarKoaster takes riders through the walls of Oktoberfest village’s iconic castle on snowmobile-style seats, riding swiftly away from a raging storm, officials said.

The coaster is 2,454 feet long, with four accelerating launches through total darkness, according to the park. If you want to embark on the journey that is DarKoaster, you must be at least 48 inches tall.
