Loggers Leap Double-Down Drop Removal Begins

Thorpe Park
Wednesday 1st March 2023

The day has finally come, the double-down drop on Loggers Leap has started to be removed! The sides of the trough have started to be removed and slates from the base of the drop have been removed in some sections. Work on removing the belt and rollers from the lift hill has already been completed, it won't be long until this old Mack log flume is replaced by a sparkly new world-class Mack rides rollercoaster.  


Further into the construction site towers the back, it appears that work on digging foundations for one section of the rollercoaster has begun. Along with blue marker points being installed towards the back of the site. Towards the middle of Old Town, work on infilling the lake looks to have begun!


With the theme park season slowly creeping up on us Saw The Ride has begun testing giving us fantastic views of the ride and the construction site when you ride it during the year. A few other rides can be seen testing from Monks Walk such as Rush, Vortex and Zodiac.


Old Town is going to look very different when the park opens for the 2023 theme park season.
