Fforest Coaster
The Fforest Coaster is an alpine toboggan track in North Wales where visitors ride small sledges on rails through a wooded forest. The route starts with a slow uphill climb of about 300 meters before descending through turns and slopes that riders can control with brake levers on either side.
The Fforest Coaster was developed as the longest alpine toboggan track in Britain and has since become an established attraction in North Wales. The facility is part of the Zip World complex, a network of outdoor adventures that has expanded over the years.
The Fforest Coaster is a place where visitors experience Welsh nature while seeking adventure together. The site has become a popular gathering spot for families and groups looking to spend time outdoors in a shared activity.
Visitors should arrive about 30 minutes early to check in and receive a wristband before heading uphill to the station. Loose items should not be brought on the ride, and each person can complete the track up to three times in a single day.
The Fforest Coaster is the only alpine toboggan system of its kind in Britain and allows riders to control their own speed with brake levers. This control means each visitor can choose the pace that feels right for them, from relaxing woodland views to thrilling fast runs.
