Twisting... Turning... Looping!
Widely regarded as the turning point for Thorpe Park was the worlds first ten looping roller
coaster, Colossus!
Colossus, although based on a ride with 8 inversions, is still to this day fairly unique, and
offers an excellent experience to the thrill seekers!
100 foot high, Colossus drops you into a loop, before shooting you down the other end to
the cobra rolls, back on yourself into two corkscrews, then into a unique four line in line
twist, before another one just before the station.
Theres no chance to catch your breath, don't be fooled into thinking this ride was just to
break records, its still a top thrill ride in the park, and one of a few record breakers in the
world.
Colossus is one of the first rides you will see from outside the park, dominating the front line.
From entering the park, follow round to the left it can't be missed!
