Rides & Attractions First, you'll need to duck as you hurtle past giant blades on SAW - The Ride, the world's first horror movie-themed rollercoaster based on the fan-favourite franchise SAW! But that's not all; you'll also experience a vertical drop of 100 feet, so you had better hold on tight. Ready to hit speeds of 60mph as you scream and soar above the ground?

Then climb aboard the UK's only winged roller coaster - THE SWARM, on Swarm Island! If you have a strong stomach, then The Vortex is calling your name. Experience 15 high-speed rotations per minute at 65ft in the air!

but try to hold your stomach in. Looking for more thrilling coasters? Thorpe Park definitely isn't short of them!

If you dare, sit yourself on the Detonator as you face a 100ft drop tower ride that will have you falling to the pit of your stomach. Are you cuckoo bananas? Have a monkey of a time on Mr Monkey's Banana swinging ship ride that the whole family will enjoy!

From the world's first horror movie-themed coaster and breathtaking heights to the brand-new rollercoaster Hyperia ride - a weightless rollercoaster! Hyperia is also now the tallest roller coaster AND the fastest roller coaster! The golden goddess will lift you to new and stomach-dropping heights you've never experienced before.

Thorpe Park has an awesome line-up of exhilarating rides ready for you to embark on. Thorpe Park Resort is a popular attraction for a reason! And we think it's about time you checked it out!

It's not for the light-hearted! Horror-themed Roller Coasters As well as the incredible SAW - The Ride, if you're a fan of gore, try The Walking Dead - The Ride, another horror-themed ride that will have you screaming. This dark ride will have you leave Thorpe Park behind and enter the immersive post-apocalyptic experience of walkers chasing you...

Think the walkers will be slow? Think again; they reach speeds up to 45kph, so you better watch out; the darkness awaits. And there's also the incredible Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon, which will make you question where reality stops and the story begins.

Wettest Water Rides However, if you're a fan of the wet and wonderful rollercoasters, try these for size. Storm Surge is a high-flying spinning water ride full of twists and turns in a life raft on a 64ft spiralling descent! Can you keep control of your life raft?

Get soaked with Tidal Wave! It's one of Europe's tallest rides and a giant flume with 215 litres of water waiting for you, so think again about wearing clothes that aren't waterproof because you will get soaked! You'll be at a high of 85ft in an oversized boat where everyone will get soaked (even bystanders) as you spiral 64ft towards the water below, creating a giant water wave!

Ready for Rumba Rapids? Family fun in every flume and ride! Did you know it's the UK's wettest water ride?!
