Description

Your adventure in Alton Towers begins with the monorail. It brings you elegantly and quickly from the parking lot or the hotel to the main entrance of the park. Meanwhile you drive past the Forbidden Valley with a great view of the roller coasters Nemesis and Galactica. You can also take a look into Katanga Canyon with the Runaway Mine Train.

Hints:
No size and age restrictions

History:

  • Until 2012 there was an audio tour guide about the park in the monorail, which was replaced by a soundtrack
