Fforest Coaster Ride at Zip World
About the experience
Make a beeline for the only alpine coaster of its kind in the UK and prepare for a thrilling woodland adventure. The Zip World Fforest Coaster is much like a traditional toboggan, the only difference being it runs on rails, so it can be experienced all year round, come rain or shine. Hop into the self-controlled carriage for three hair-raising laps of the course, beginning in the heart of the Welsh forest. Ascend 300 metres on the uplift, before letting gravity take its toll as the toboggan zooms and weaves between the trees at exhilarating speeds, reaching up to 25mph in some places. For those who'd prefer to take it easy and take in the picturesque views, the speed can be reduced with the self-controlled brake system for a more leisurely ride.

- Glide through the Welsh woodland on the UK's only alpine coaster of its kind
