👍👍 This amazing classic wooden coaster is both my favorite ride in the park and one of the most impressive preservation success stories for a ride ever.

Lightning Racer

Roller coaster

😐 Great coaster! A little rough, but the excitement of the interactions with the trains every now and then and finding out who's going to win makes up for the slight roughness, much nicer coaster than Wildcat which is made by the same manufacturer. Pretty well maintained as always, hardly has down tim...

Talon: The Grip of Fear

Roller coaster

👍👍 This ride is great, I go to dorney around every other week so it has lost its first initial scare but it can either be an ok ride or a great ride depending on where you sit. So if you can, wait for the front row or the row with larger seats for the best ride.
