About Hyperia
Hyperia at Thorpe Park is the UK's tallest and fastest roller coaster, opened in 2024 by Mack Rides. The Mack hyper coaster reaches 236 feet and 80 mph, with a 95-degree first drop - vertical-plus - and four inversions including an Immelmann, a wave turn and a stall element. Track length is just under a kilometre and ride duration around two and a half minutes.
Hyperia is currently Thorpe Park's biggest crowd draw and queue times routinely exceed 90 minutes on weekends and bank holidays. Single-rider line is available and saves significant time when offered. Aim for park opening or late evening - the back row delivers the strongest airtime, the front the best view across the resort.
