Fforest Coaster - Zip World

Twists, turns and thrills in the forest on Zip World's Betws-y-Coed Coaster in North Wales

An unforgettable outdoor experience for thrill seekers, adrenaline junkies and kids, big and small! 

Fforest Coaster is the UK's only gravity-driven alpine coaster of its kind. Located in an idyllic woodland setting, you'll whizz through the alpine forest at speeds of up to 25mph. 

Three rides give you three chances to go as fast as possible.

Fancy a more relaxing pace? The optional braking systems allow you to take things a bit slower and enjoy gorgeous forest scenery around 1km of forest tracks full of twists and turns. 

Kids as young as three can ride, and the coaster sledges have space for two, meaning children and adults can ride together.
