How long does it take to get from Horsham to Thorpe Park?

Asked by Wiki User

Well it depends, if you live in London it could take around 10 - 30 minutes and if you live in the south its about 1hr and 15 mins to 2hrs. And in the North, around 2 - 4hrs. It really depends where you live. Go on google maps and type your adress then thorpe park address and it will tell you the duration and the directions :)

Hoep this helped
2 minutes if you live next door

1 hour if you live about 40-50 miles away

a few days if you start from the moon and have access to a rocket

a few light years if you are in another galaxy

What is better thorpe park or Alton towers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, Alton Is better for theming and adventure, and the range of rides arent as intense as Thorpe Park. Thorpe Is better for thrill seekers 10+ as Very Intense Rides are dotted all over the park.

So really, If theme parks are for Adventure and THRILL, My Opinion is Thorpe Park.

How high is saw the new ride at thorpe park?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

it think its 200 ft high and goes from 0-80 mph our in under 2 seconds. its not a very long ride, it lasts like under a minute

It is 205ft high, goes from 0 - 80 mph in 1.8 seconds and lasts about 15 seconds. As the ride is only launched and not pulled up the hill, there are sometimes "rollbacks" but these are very rare, this is where the train does not reach the required speed, reaches the top, then goes backwards the way it came. If it was even just 1 mph off the required speed, it would "rollback" but the controllers just relaunch the train once it reaches the station.

Hope this helps.

Should I go to Thorpe Park or Chessington?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

it depends on age

if the children are younger than 11 i would say chessington because the rides there are more appropriate for them and they will be able to ride on all of them

but thorpe park is better for older children as the rides are bigger and bertter but they have height restrictions

overall, thorpe park is better :)
