This is the most insane wooden roller coaster ever built! Located in Santa Claus Indiana, The Voyage opened at Holiday World in 2006, towering over the park with its MASSIVE 159 foot tall lift hill, and sprawling 6,442 feet of track. The ride feels like a wooden hyper coaster with its enormous airtime hills in the first half, and a fast paced low to the ground second half. There's simply nothing else like it!

I rode this in 2009 with the 7-car train. 7th car front row was the most unreal coaster experience I’ve ever had. This was also before the mid-course trims slowed it down so the extra weight had it flying through the second half. That was the day I became a coaster enthusiast.

@garminkid 7 месяцев назад

I rode The Voyage for my first time back in July on a trip featuring Holiday World, Kentucky Kingdom, and Kings Island. I got 10 rides, and while it kinda hurt (also from riding The Legend and The Raven; Holiday World is EXHAUSTING), I fell in love with the ride! There is no doubt that The Voyage is the greatest wooden coaster in the world and also became my number one out of the 170 credits I have. No ride does what The Voyage does. It combines a B&M Hyper (going out) with an Intamin Blitz (spaghetti bowl) and finishes out with the first half of Fury 325 (return trip), all on a wooden track. It’s the most complete roller coaster I have ever ridden and that’s why it’s my number 1. The other coasters in my top 5 are VelociCoaster (#2), Intimidator 305 (#3), Fury 325 (#4), and Lightning Rod (#5), and The Voyage beats all of them. This review perfectly describes my experience on The Voyage! Get out to Holiday World and ride it NOW.

@timwolfe77 7 месяцев назад

Rode it in 2006 and 2007 and can attest it was quite the experience. The ending sequence felt very unique because of how rapid fire the elements came at you while at the same time had no rhythm to them. It was the type of intensity that made a lot of riders laugh. On the other hand, while waiting for our first ride there were two consecutive trains that had an arriving passenger bolt for the garbage can on the unloading platform

@scottyomcbrian 7 месяцев назад

I remember the first time I rode The Voyage- when it opened in 2006. We got to the mid-course brake run, and I thought "Dang, this is a good ride," to only find out it was only half done. Like your enthusiast quotes, I would call it a masterpiece. Not that I ever knew Will Koch personally, but I can guarantee you he was heavily influenced by The Beast (Legacy credits to it). He would have gone to KI as a young guy to ride the Beast in its prime (when it broke and held all the records), and when he turned Santa Claus Land into Holiday World, he certainly took inspiration from The Beast when building the coasters at his park. The Raven drops into a dark tunnel before speeding through the woods. The Legend makes great use of terrain and has a 540 degree helix (semi) finale. Finally, when his park was thriving, he built the crown jewel of all wood coasters- The Voyage- which does everything its predecessors have done only better. Will Koch's role in the development of this coaster should not be understated; he definitely left us too soon, but fortunately he left us with one hell of a legacy.

@patrickd.3681 Месяц назад

Just one minor correction. It was actually Will Koch’s father, Bill, who turned Santa Claus Land into Holiday World.

@jessicabedo-keathley1309 7 месяцев назад

It's great watching the in depth video on the Voyage after I finally got to ride over the summer. I used to watch so many videos about it, and it really didn't mean as much as this video because I actually got to experience and felt almost every bit of the coaster as you were going through the layout. Someday, when my son graduates and I have money, I will definitely attend Holiday Nights!

@jamesyoder11 7 месяцев назад

This is my home park, and I've ridden The Voyage many hundreds of times. It would probably be thousands by now, but the ride is very intense and hard to marathon beyond 3-5 rides at a time. As for the 7-car train, that last car was incredible. It would also run without the mid-course brakes, and they would put all 3 trains they had during the opening year and year following. The queue would completely fill the bottom part of the station and stretch outside. The Timberliner debacle had them get rid of those trains for the Timberliners, then they had to pull extra PTC trains from the Raven and Legend to run after the Timberliners fell through. That's why they only have 6 cars now.

@rossh688 7 месяцев назад

There must be more to not adding the back cars on, especially since the station is already set up. I'm sure HW can afford them.

@jamesyoder11 7 месяцев назад

@@rossh688 Coaster trains are hideously expensive (>$1mil each), and they'd have to buy at least two of them. And it's not needed, as outside of Holiwood Nights they rarely get an insanely long line. When they do eventually replace the trains I think they might go back to 7 car trains, but they're simply not needed right now.

@empresscami 7 месяцев назад

HW is my home park and i absolutely love it. I have been to a lot of parks and ridden lots of rides and this is by far my favorite. The seven car back row was so surreal.

@danblanchfield4918 7 месяцев назад

I was working at SFDL in 2010 when Holiday World prematurely sold us two trains for Predator.. come to find out the Timberliners weren't going to work out. They ended up using Raven's 2nd train for that season since they were left with only 1 original train, to allow for 2 train ops on Voyage since it's longer, and bought a fresh one in 2011.

The airtime hills all hit perfectly and the laterals, especially at night, were crazy. Can't wait for Holiwood Nights and trimless rides on Voyage, but am really anxious for the dark turn-drops on Legend.

Ghostrider is my number one mainly because its the ride that got me into coasters so Its my personal favorite however this ride seems almost built for me. its a wood coaster (Wood coasters are my favorite there is just something about them.) it flys through the woods (any coaster in the woods shoots up in my rankings immediately because the woods are my favorite place on earth and flying through them at high speeds is just insane) its a terrain coaster, focused on airtime and its insanely long. it seems like its literally made specifically for my Coaster tastes. I need to get out there and ride this thing as soon as possible.

Voyage is my favorite coaster of all time, and nothing even really comes close. Even with the trims on. Granted I've only ridden 288 coasters, but that includes most (if not all) of the coasters in the US that enthusiasts consider "elite". Steel Vengeance, Velocicoaster, X2, Maverick, El Toro, Lightning Rod (wooden), Fury 325, Millennium Force, Skyrush, Phoenix, Boardwalk Bullet, Phantom's Revenge, The Beast? Done them all, but Voyage still reigns supreme. I can't really even think of any coaster on the planet that would beat Voyage in my ranking. I've attended Holiwood Nights the past three years, but that ship unfortunately has sailed (no pun intended). While I would love to fly from California to Indiana for a fourth year in a row to ride my #1 coaster, it's just too difficult and expensive of a trip. With how stressful getting tickets was in 2022 and 2023, I just became burnt out from the whole thing and didn't even try to get tickets for HWN 2024 this morning. Maybe in a few years I'll return :)

Supposedly, the topography of the ground the ride sits on puts the station at the lowest elevation. If that is true, it means that the ride is generally going downhill all the way back to the station. I once heard an enthusiast say that the Voyage starts with a bang and ends with an explosion. I thought that was a pretty fair description.😂

@davidreynolds5936 7 месяцев назад

Best and favorite are such hard terms with rollercoasters. I compare it to movies. If you ask someone what the best movie ever made is, they may say something like Schindler's List. It is not a movie you "enjoy", but rather experience. However, if you ask them what movie they enjoy the most, they may give you one of the Marvel movies or a great comedy. Their are roller coasters that I could spend a whole day marathoning, just having fun and enjoying the ride. The Voyage is an event. After riding, you need time to process what just happened. There is nothing else like it, in a good way, and I think that makes it the best rollercoaster. However, there are rollercoasters that I "enjoy" more.

@@patrickd.3681 Don't know if they'd go for the lisence. Chris Van Allsburg would probably give it to them for almost free with some of the things I've heard about him and how much seemingly unofficial stuff is out there such as tourist railroads doing something with it or stuff like a "Polar Expresso" drink at Holiday World I made a RU-vid short on, asking why no Glacier Gulch, but Glacier Gulch is from the movie and not the book (there's basis for it in the book, but the movie scene is embelished to put it mildly. Something I appreciate as that scene was pivitol to my coaster enthusiast journey) so I don't know if it would just be him that would need to give the ok. I wanted it to be real as a kid, I believed it was real for several years as a child, and right before riding Voyage when I found out Gravity Group advised on that scene, it became real with large scale Gravity Group coasters like Voyage and Hades being the torch bearers. Voyage the most because of what town it's in and the fact that one of my van lifing coaster nerd trinkets I keep in my car...is a Voyage ornament. In a way, it is still Santa Clause Land with the whole park having that theme where the other holiday themes are more overlays than anything (still wanting an April Fools section anchored by what looks like a family coaster from the midway but turns out to be an ultimate thrill machine, with their sense of humour it's totally in their wheelhouse to do it). I mean, why else would they sell coaster ornaments as souvineers?

Voyage is actually my #3. Was my #2 before Velocicoaster took it. Obviously Steel Vengeance is my #1

Both of those rides are in my top 5, but neither of them touch The Voyage.

Mean Streak had PTC trains and was 161ft tall.

I was hoping to get Holiwood Night tickets to ride it, but i didn't. 😢

I'm going to finally ride the Voyage for the first time next year. Don't get me wrong, this ride looks absolutely fantastic, but I'm worried it'll be a let down for me for one single reason, the PTC trains. I've never been a fan of PTC's train design, and I would go as far as saying it is probably the single worst train design for wooden coasters. For someone who is bigger like me, the train's compact design is too constricting for me. While I can fit without any assistence, the ride experience is hindered by the constant cramping feeling I get, a pain I only get in a PTC train, and never from any other train design from any other make or model. I just really hope I can still enjoy the Voyage despite the PTC trains.

If I can get tickets to HoliWood nights I’ll have to lose like 30 pounds to fit comfortably 😭

It's very unfortunate because they tried to use Timberliners but it kept valleying so they had to go back to the PTC Trains :(

I hope you actually do get to ride the voyage for your first time next year. As long as you can fit in the car like you said you can it will be no problem. once the train goes over the lift hill you won't even care what kind of train you're on seriously. you will be glad your on one with such a long safety history. I am always out of breath like I just ran a 40 yard dash when we hit the final break run. What an amazing masterpiece by Gravity Group. I have been to Cedar Point and rode SV and all the other amazing stuff there but the Voyage is just on another level for me. Hope to see you at HW in 2024

Holiday World needs to RMC-ibox one of their older CCIs, ideally Legend -> RMC Iron Legend, which is already over 4000 feet of track which tends to be around RMC's sweet spot. Raven is too short to be worth an RMC conversion.

ABSOLUTELY not. Leave Legend alone. It's one of the most unhinged roller coasters on the planet. So underrated and insane. Why would Raven be too short?
