Coaster reviews

Theming Intensity

Nice theming for a family ride, but the intensity is extremely low, even for kids.

Theming Intensity

Nice theming for a family ride, but the intensity is extremely low, even for kids.

Inversions Location Discomfort

A very rough coaster, but the very soft headrest makes it doable as long as you're prepared. Beautiful location as well.

Pace Intensity Ejectors Lap Bar

A relentless layout, the countless bunnyhops never stop barraging you with positive and negative forces, and the final twist might just be the best part of the ride.

Nice surprise! Launch Intensity Rattle

The launch on this coaster will absolutely blow you away. The rest of the ride has a rattle, but is almost entirely a near-miss with the surrounding cliffs, including the "secret" inline twist. A must ride.

Launch Rattle

Incredible launch that just keeps going. Unfortunately, the rattle on the way up and the hump before the brakes are quite uncomfortable.

Layout Discomfort Dead spots

First half of the ride was surprisingly nice, having a lot of cool interactions with the path and other trains. The second half is just a giant dead spot. The brakes are way too sharp.

Fun Layout

The age of this coaster is showing, but the freedom in the seats and massive height (for a bobsled) more than make up for it.

Comfort Intensity

Very intense and thrilling ride! Feels like a constant battle between the rough track and the super comfortable train seats. The backwards ride is worth waiting for. The train's rattle sound is also very unique.

Discomfort

At time of writing this, the coaster has 2 cycles, even though the first corner towards the lifthill is not made for it at all (It is sharp and unbanked). Beware.

Theming Nice surprise!

Great theming and a halfway surprise. Very nice family coaster.

Theming Comfort

A great B&M invert with a few unexpected forces. The cheerful Asterix theming takes it a level beyond other similar rides.

Launch Ejectors

An awesome 2023 rollercoaster. Every element is forceful, no matter how big or small. The triple launch has you flying out of your seat, into your seat, and free falling, one after another. Parc Asterix's theming style also makes this coaster shine even more.

Theming Capacity Duration

I've been blessed enough to have experienced Space Mountain, Space Mountain Mission 2, and now Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain. The physical ride and building itself is still as it always was: The gorgeous Jules Verne theme is timeless, the trains match perfectly, and the ride experience and capacity are excellent for a Vekoma of that era. At first I was scared that the new Star Wars theming ruined the gorgeous atmosphere of what is in my opinion the ultimate Disneyland Paris icon. But luckily, this was not the case. The soundtrack was very fitting, and the on-screen effects are a perfect fit for the 2 mid-course brake sections. The final corkscrew especially was themed nicely with these new Star Wars effects. Surprising!

Theming Fun Duration

A Disney icon. The underwater sections carry a lot of speed for what is otherwise the perfect family roller coaster.

Theming Fun Harness

A fun ride with cool theming, but the uncomfortable restraints desperately need an update.

Location Masterpiece Intensity

If any roller coaster classified as a work of art, Dragon Khan is the one. 25 years ago, 5 year old me faced this roller coaster from the Chinese wall promenade, coming from the Western themed area. I was too small to ride it, but the sight of it changed the trajectory of my life forever. Today I returned with high expectations, and Dragon Khan far exceeded them. A beauty to behold from every angle. The ride is fierce, the vertical loops have a surprising amount of force, and there are next to no dead spots. With Shambhala right next to it, it might be a contrarian opinion to like Dragon Khan the most, but in my opinion its intensity is unmatched by any other steel non-launch coaster in Europe I've experienced so far. I'm bumping down most of my previous 5 star ratings to 4.5 to put Dragon Khan with the elites; it's well deserved. A true masterpiece.

First Drop Location

The stunning location makes this okay family coaster an amazing experience.
