At the heart of Thorpe Park, a pivotal moment has unfolded: the assembly of the lift hill for the groundbreaking roller coaster Hyperia is well underway. The construction of the first two sections of the Golden Lift Hill Track last Friday marked an exciting progression in the build of this record-setting ride.

Lift Hill Development Progresses

The installation of Hyperia's lift hill, the new attraction capturing everyone's attention, has reached a significant milestone. Following the completion of the base and the rest of the track layout a few days earlier, the assembly of the first sections of the golden track has begun. This step highlights the commitment and innovation invested in bringing Hyperia to life.

Hyperia – A New Record Holder

Aiming to reach a height of 236 feet (ca. 72 m), Hyperia will dominate the park's skyline and claim the title of the tallest roller coaster in Thorpe Park and across the UK. The combination of gold and white tracks symbolizes the exclusivity and uniqueness of this attraction.

Completion of the Stall Turn and Further Progress

The last week was marked by significant advancements on the construction site. Besides the completion of the Stall Turn, a spectacular feature of the coaster, numerous supports for the lift hill and the first drop have been erected. These developments are indicative of the dynamic construction phase Hyperia is in.

Thematic Design Enhances Experience

A key aspect of Hyperia is its detailed presentation. Both the new shop and the front of the station have been adorned with golden theming, enhancing the visual appeal of the coaster. The designs on the side of the station facing into the park have been carefully chosen and blend harmoniously into the overall picture.

Hyperia Sets New Standards in Thorpe Park

The installation of Hyperia's lift hill is a clear signal of Thorpe Park's ambitious plans to create an attraction of unparalleled size and experience quality. With each piece of track mounted, the completion of this record-breaking roller coaster draws closer, and anticipation for its opening continues to grow.
