Cedar Point

Cedar Point

If you're a roller coaster junkie and love that sinking, lurching feeling in the pit of your stomach, then Cedar Point is the place for you. The park has more roller coasters--15--and rides--68--than any other park in the world. This spring, the park will add the Wicked Twister, which claims to be the world's tallest. Riders will launch out of the station at 50 mph and up a 90-degree twisting tower. As the train slows near the top of the U-shaped track, riders experience "air time," the feeling of floating in air, before zooming up another tower and spiraling down...backward.

As if that's not enough, the train will go up and down the towers five times at a maximum speed of 72 mph, and twists 450 degrees. We suggest visiting the snack bar after the rides. Get the credit cards ready after the kids visit the "Peanuts" cartoon-themed rides and attractions, including the "Snoopy Rocks! On Ice" show and Camp Snoopy Theater. There is also an 18-acre water park area, called Soak City (admission is extra).



Prices vary depending on the day and time (discounts are given after 5 P.M.), but tickets to Cedar Point are $42 for ages 4-59 and those 48 inches or taller, and $20 for people under 48 inches. Admission to both parks is $59 and $39, respectively; for Soak City only, $23 and $13.
