Great Bear

Great Bear is an exhilarating, looping, inverted steel coaster. The ride starts by lifting you 90 feet, then speeds up to 61 mph as it rips down the tracks, through a loop then into what is called an immelman - a loop that turns you out at the top and then drops you like a falling star!

I love it!!! The seat is different than I'm used to but the 5gs and -2gs are awesome.

Bethanne Babbs

Smooth and comfortable , but very exciting. If you have time, get a front row seat. It amps up the experience, and you also get a great view on the lift hill .

Love this ride! It's fun! Make sure you keep your head back, otherwise you may jerk around! Also the picture is taken at the end of the ride!

Jay Preisner

Was a great ride again! Hanging down and going through loops so you are staring at the sky was a fun experience.

George Taylor

Great inverted B&M with some very unique features.

Jason Burkett

Scan the codes in line to play the Hershey Park trivia game and you'll find out how long you have left to wait.

Brandon Cain

Still the best coaster in Hershey! (Even better than the Skyrush!)

Stephen Juliano

Look down at the creek for as long as you can. It gives a whole new effect on the ride!

Steve Aikens

The line might look long, but each row is 4 people so it goes really quickly!
