Thorpe Park

Located just a short ride from London, Thorpe Park Resort in Surrey brings thrills and chills like no other UK theme park. The star of the show is the brand-new coaster Hyperia, which towers 236 ft and speeds past 80 mph, making it officially the UK’s tallest, fastest and most weightless ride.

But Hyperia is just one part of the ride-rich experience: you’ll also find the mighty Stealth - blasting from 0 to 80 mph in under two seconds and rising to 205 ft high. The wing-style coaster THE SWARM takes you flying through near-60 mph inversions while suspended on either side of the track. And for the horror-ride lovers, SAW - The Ride offers a beyond-vertical 100° drop and spine-tingling theming based on the iconic movie franchise.

Families aren’t forgotten either: water rides like Tidal Wave plunge you 85 ft with a tsunami-sized splash, while more moderate attractions such as Depth Charge and Quantum let younger or gentler thrill-seekers join the fun.

Whether you’re chasing the record-breakers, braving dark horror zones, or simply after a fun-packed day out with the family, Thorpe Park delivers the kind of adrenaline and atmosphere that make it a standout destination for thrill-seekers this year.
