Hyperia, the park's latest addition, is set to become the fastest and tallest roller coaster in the United Kingdom and is scheduled to open in 2024. This article offers an exclusive insight into the current progress of construction and reveals what visitors can expect from this exciting new attraction.

Transforming the Skyline: Hyperia's Dominance

The evolving skyline of Thorpe Park is a visible sign of Hyperia's impending completion. Particularly striking is the third tower of the construction, equipped with a non-inverted Immelmann and a stall loop – a feat of engineering that will keep visitors suspended upside-down for an astonishingly long period.

From Entrance to the Adventure Station

The path to Hyperia's main station is more than just a simple walkway; it's the start of a journey where visitors will find their courage. The station itself is the heart of the roller coaster, from where guests will board the United Kingdom's tallest and fastest roller coaster. To the left is the final brake run, the place where the ride triumphantly ends, and riders return after their brave journey.

Landscape Design Meets Engineering

The area around Hyperia is still a construction site, but Thorpe Park's landscaping team is transforming this area into a visual masterpiece. The recently completed outward-banked airtime hill, the penultimate element of the roller coaster, signifies the near completion of the project. The surrounding land will be transformed into a picturesque lake, reflecting the harmony between technology and nature.

The Ascent to New Heights

The journey on Hyperia begins with a uniquely outward-banked track section, leading passengers to the base of the impressive 72-meter-high lift hill. This feature offers a spectacular start and positions Hyperia as one of the most exciting roller coasters in the country.

The Splashdown Experience

Another highlight of Hyperia is the splashdown track, a feature that provides both visual beauty and thrill. After a gentle glide over water, guests ascend an outward-banked airtime hill, a section that promises excitement and joy in equal measure.

The Masters Behind the Masterpiece

Not to be overlooked are the tireless efforts of the construction team, which played a crucial role in bringing Hyperia to life. Their collaboration in assembling the roller coaster supports demonstrates the hard work and dedication behind this project.

Hyperia is a symbol of engineering, courage, and the continuous evolution of the amusement park industry. With its opening in 2024, Thorpe Park will not only unveil a new roller coaster, but will also turn a new page in the history of British theme parks. Visitors can look forward to being part of this exciting new adventure, setting new standards in thrill and technical innovation.
