Top 15 Rides and Slides at Dorney Park
Рет қаралды 37,521
2 жыл бұрынDorney Park is the northeast's Cedar Fair park. Located in Allentown, Pennsylvania, this amusement park has been around for nearly 140 years. The park still has some classic rides plus modern day coasters, some fun flat rides, and the popular Wildwater Kingdom water park. So in this video, I will rank the top 15 best rides and slides at Dorney Park.

I went to Dorney Park last year during Haunt and I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know if many Cedar Fair parks take their Haunt as seriously as Dorney Park does. On top of that I really had a good time on their top 3 coasters. I thought their Revolution flat ride is a lot of fun too. I don't get the hate for Steel Force, especially at night. It's a lot of fun.

I'm partial to old-school 'Scorpion' and 'Enterprise' rides; I love that DP still has those after all these years. (Actually, they didn't have the former the last time I went, some 20 years ago.)

Definitely a good waterpark for this place. The coaster collection is good as they have a decent Morgan Hyper, an extremely unique B&M Floorless, an Invert, and other attractions. I definitely think it's a cool thing the park has both an S&S Space Shot drop tower and an Intamin First Generation one, they are 2 totally different experiences.

Demon Drop is such an underrated roller coaster. ;) The drop on that roller coaster is my favorite moment on any ride at the park. My favorite ride is Hydra because of how unique and quirky it is. I love how the lack of aggressive moves allow for no headbanging plus giving hangtime & airtime.

Gotta give a shout-out to the now-defunct flatride "Iceberg" (later renamed "Meteorite"), an n-degree in-the-dark 'Cuddle-Up' ride that would cause you to lose ALL sense of direction! Of all the rides I've ridden in my life, that may be the one I miss the most.

So much wasted space at Dorney. Nothing replaced Stinger and the plot of land would be great for a RMC Raptor. Where Dinosaurs Alive once was would be superb for a Drop style Coaster like Diabolical. Imagine the removal of Revolution and the insert of a modern day Enterprise (ie Cat Woman's Whip or Super Girl.) New rides would justify slightly higher prices that I would gladly pay for. I've been going to Dorney Park for most of my life. Dorney Park makes it's most money when Water Park opens. It needs an equally weight in the Dry Park. My opinion. Great Video.

Today I went to Dorney Park for a field trip, and I have to say I've never been to an amusement park so this was my first one. The first ride I went on was the Talon, it was scary but I didn't feel like screaming. The second one I went on was the hydra, it was a scary upside down experience even the 2 teachers we were with was like "OH". Then we ate lunch and I skipped some of the rides because I didn't want to throw up my food but I went on possessed. I have to say possessed was my favorite!

Last year for my cousins birthday I went to Downey park for the first time, I went on the patriots plunge I went on the white slide and it was so fun but it felt like I was gonna fly off and I also went on the talon and it was so fun but since it was my first roller coaster I passed out. I tried to go on the wild mouse but the lines were to long all though Dorsey park is a really fun place to spend time with family and friends!

I haven't been here in a long time thanks to CF's neglect of new thrills. I have 2 questions which maybe you could guess answers for. First is there enough room over where Hercules once stood to have some kinda neat coaster using the footers in the water (like verbolten used BBW)? And do u think voodoo will remain, that the zephyr is re-routed around it, even if the shuttle coaster doesn't come for years yet or at all? I'm thinking that's up in the air with Calif GA closing and a cheaper alternative from there being possible to "fill space" since CF hasn't cared since 2008.
@CanobieCoaster Жыл бұрын
I hope Possessed stays since they fixed it up for 2021. I think they could use the footers if they put a station where the old Swan Boats were.

@mitchellries256 2 жыл бұрын
I have to say I am amazed that you preferred Laser over Hydra: The Revenge. But I do have a few other questions. First, I saw three towers on Dominator but one of them was hollowed out which suggests there's nothing on that tower? Was it always like that? And secondly, if Stinger was removed thanks to downtime, why wasn't it given an overhaul like what Silverwood did with Aftershock when it was relocated from Six Flags Great America and how come Invertigo at Kings Island doesn't suffer from any down time at all when it's exactly the same ride?
@CanobieCoaster 2 жыл бұрын
Laser was a more forceful ride start to finish. Dominator's 3rd "leg" or tower seems to be just for aesthetics and support. It never had a tower there. Invertigo has had downtime when I'm at Kings Island, but the one at Dorney was more troublesome.

I have Talon as my favorite coaster at Dorney. With my channel/site name & logo, is that surprising though? 😂 Just curious if you ever had the chance to ride Hercules? I went with my aunt the year it opened. I loved it and so did she. Went a couple of years later and still thought it was good. I was barely in double digits as far as age goes though... Back when I ranked Anaconda at Kings Dominion as my number 1 coaster. 😂😂😂

I never understood why cedar fair sent Stinger (invertigo) to Dorney park when they already have Talon and even Possessed. I feel like they should have sent it to ValleyFair. Although they have an intamin impulse another roller coaster with inversions would have been a nice addition.

There's only 2 parks where both of my top 2 rides aren't coasters, and this is one of them. My favorite is by far Demon Drop. My second favorite is Dominator, which is saying a lot as S&S towers are probably at the bottom of my list. None of the coasters here really impressed me that much. Especially Talon, I thought that was really forceless.

I'm glad chance rides still uses the arrow track design but from a durability standpoint it doesn't make sense. Bracing the rails from the inside makes it far stronger than having the rails held up by the sides. The track will warp far quicker. But regardless I'm happy it's still being used by chance rides. Although I wish they would go back to the arrow style with thick cross ties.
