Top 14 Roller Coasters at Hersheypark | Hershey, Pennsylvania (2023)

Do you think that wildcats revenge will become your new favorite HersheyPark coaster since Skyrush has the new restraints lessening the intensity a bit?

skyrush or flying aces?

Storm Runner is my favorite!

1. Wildcat’s Revenge (10/10)
2. Candymonium (9/10)
3. Fahrenheit (8/10)
4. Great Bear(only worth sitting in the front imo (7.5-8/10))
5. Skyrush (6/10 is generous)
6. Storm Runner? (I need a re-ride 🤷‍♂️)
7. Lightning Racer (6/10)
8. Jolly Rancher Remix (6/10)
9. Comet (5/10)
10. SooperDooperLooper
11. Cocoa Cruiser

Haven’t rode Trailblazer, Laff Trakk, or Wild Mouse

agreed, as a enthusiast Lightining racer is soooo underrated. Its mad fun and idk why people hate on it other than the few seconds after the drop.

My first time ever at Hershey Park 8/15/24. My number 1 is Wildcats Revenge. What a ride man!!!!

I haven't been to Hersheypark in probably about 12 years, but during that trip, Skyrush was my favorite coaster, followed by Lightning Racer. I didn't get to go on Storm Runner and Fahrenheit really jacked up my back, leaving me with the feeling of doing too much in too small of a space/time. The original Wildcat was still operating and it was ROUGH, leading me to never want to ride it again.

I agree with most of this list. I think I was one of the only people that really liked the original Wild cat but Wild cats revenge is amazing! One of the best coasters I've ridden. I however do not enjoy Skyrush, while the updated restraints are much better, I find it rough and I just don't enjoy it. I 100% agree that Lightning Racer is underrated, it's been a favorite of mine since it was built.

Ok so if you rode sky rush then you rode my 2fav ride the only thing is here’s a lil story



So one time me my brother and sister wanted to go on I’m the youngest child so ofc I was scared so I went on it and I kinda liked it
But then the next time I went on it I got my elbow stuck ON THE RIDE on the bottom left I got my left elbow stuck and right when he said all clear is when I got my arm stuck on the chain lift I never forgot

Jesus and God are gonna love you and they do no matter what and are always gonna be there for you no matter what!! 🙏🫶

i love jolly rancher remix but the tunnel does not smell like jolly ranchers and i was really excited for that only to find that it smells like.. chemicals?

i got comet over lightning racer all day

Rush was waaaay too short. Other than that agree one of the best.

Is that Drownin playing the back?

I road the Wildcat the first time in 2021, which after, I referred to it as "The Chiropractor". Well I'm back and saw the updated Wildcats Revenge. Was skeptical til I saw the Best Coaster 2023 sign. Had to try it and holy crap it did not disappoint! Never have I rode a rollercoaster like this! It was amazing!

Sky rush actually got new restraints this year and there really good! You should try them out.

Just went to Hersey. Have to say, I was blown away by wildcats revenge…. Amazing. I also loved sky rush. Particularly the restraints… I LOVE the lap bar type restraints. They feel super comfortable and I feel super free (I know that’s not what everyone wants on a roller coaster). It reminds me of my favorite roller coaster of all time, Velocicoaster. (Yes Ik they both intamen)

I love Hershey park, maybe even more than great adventure. It has a lot of thrill factor, but also has insane charm, and a clean appearance. Probably one of the only parks I’ll go on a “tour ride” (the candy one) because it’s so nostalgic

I’m glad u brought up skyrush restraints, I’ll take a little thigh pain for my whole upper body being free

Thanks! I’m going for my 8th grade trip next year so I’ll have to save this 😊

Rode some of these 2 days ago. Awesome rides

Bro wild mouse is goated because when I rode it it was a lot of fun and you can't rate something like wild mouse to candimonium tbh but hey, that's just my opinion

thanks for this video bossman, i enjoyed watching it. i learned alot from it for our trip.

The scent on jolly rancher remix made my lungs feel weird and gave me a headache

They did change the restraints on sky rush

Honestly I'm suprised you put skyrush over wildcats revenge because when I went last weekend and rode skyrush front row, I didn't really get any forces now that could be because it was early in the morning but it just overall didn't have much bite to it, but I had a great first ride on wildcats revenge and it blew me away, it's definitely up there with other RMC's I've been on like Twisted timbers or Lightning rod.

Dorney got a new coaster :)

I do not mind the intensity of skyrush but I do not like the restraint at all. I rode it once and won’t ride it again.

I like rolling my

Here is my ranking
1. Wildcats revenge
2. Farenheight
3. Storm runner
4. Skyrush
5. Great bear
6. Candy monium
7. Lightning racer
8. Jolly rancher remix
9. Comet
10. Laff track
11. Sooper dooper looper
12. Trailblazer
13. Wildmouse (this ride sucks)
14. Cocoa cruiser
15. Breakers edge (this is at 15 bc technichaly not a coaster, it’s a water slide thing)

Im on Team Skyrush too but come on...Wildcat's Revenge is MUCH better.

Coco cruiser snubbed should’ve been 1 tbh

The top 6 are quite extraordinary. Even on busy days, there is usually a short line on one or more of Skyrush, Stormrunner, or Great Bear. Fahrenheit used to be my favorite after my first rides were super smooth, but later rides have been shakier. It seems like it varies a lot.

Absolutely Outstanding

Skyrush at 1 is a crime

I went 20 times this season and I have ridden every major coaster over 100 times, but I still haven’t rode wild mouse…

My first ever roller coaster with inversions is the Vekoma boomerang coaster in Six Flags St. Louis and I loved it

Liked this video

When i was there most recently skyrush had the longest wait by far in the park with close to 2 hours they where for some reason only running one train on it i guess they where not expecting it to be a busy day or smth but it was a very busy day and i didn't get a chance to ride it on both of my trips it was raining the first tims and thid the second although stoem runner was great we where in a rush to go in to all of the rides and get out so waiting 2+ hours for skyrush was nlt an option

Really love Hershey, but I do think Lightning Racer is getting very rough and that could have something to do with the short lines. Talon at Dorney is better than Great Bear in my opinion.

I agree with the whole list, but I would switch great bear and Fahrenheit. Good video👍

Hersheypark was my favorite theme park when I was a kid, and I think it was because of the number of family rides that were there at the time--I was coaster-phobic. The only coaster I rode then was Trailblazer, and that only once. I went once as an adult about a decade ago and couldn't do a lot of coastering because I had a small child with me, but I did get to experience Fahrenheit and sooperdooperLooper. Fahrenheit is fantastic--the only problem with it is its low capacity, which makes for rough lines. It's interesting to see Intamin do their take on a Eurofighter/Infinity-style coaster. I particularly liked the corkscrews near the end.

sooperdooperLooper fascinated me because I remembered seeing it when it was new and being terrified by it. You could describe it as a Mine Train with one punchy Schwarzkopf loop right at the beginning--by modern standards, not a super-thrilling ride. But I liked finally getting to ride it and it was the first time I'd ridden an inversion without over-the-shoulder restraints (that was a rarer thing then than it is now). The setting and visuals are nice. It's kind of crazy how many rides are tangled together in that part of the park--even back in the 70s, sooperdooperLooper had an exciting interaction with the Coal Cracker flume.

Trailblazer is short and tame as Arrow Mine Trains go, there's not much to it, but since it's my first roller coaster, I have some sentimental attachment to it. I did make sure to ride it again with my family on that visit--my daughter was about 5 and she was grinning the whole way. It wasn't her first coaster but I do think it was the first that had an extended layout with a lift hill. My wife, who is very much not a coaster enthusiast, describes Trailblazer as about the level of ride she's comfortable with.

I think what Hersheypark needs now is not another coaster but some kind of transportation ride to bring people to the back of the park and even out the traffic flow. The monorail and the steam train don't really take you anywhere and, while fun, are no help at all. When the layout was much smaller than it is now, they had a Von Roll gondola skyride (much bigger than the little chair-lift one that is still there) that went from the front of the park to what was then the back, near Coal Cracker. They should revive that and turn it into a triangle, with the third corner in the Midway America area or near the waterpark. It'd make it much easier to get around.

I have never been to this park, and I am jealous that it has such a stacked coaster lineup

When jolly rancher remix was still sidewinder the ride ops closed my hand in the restraint and sent the ride before I had the chance to alert them I rode the whole ride with my hand crushed in the restraint

I am very lucky to have this park as one of my home parks along with Dorney and SFGAdv! Skyrush is definitely my favorite as well but Wildcat's Revenge is a close #2 and an incredible addition to their lineup

Great video again, i agree with most of your list.. I'd switch 3 and 2
