Thunderhawk
About Thunderhawk
First it was called The Coaster, but now this classic wooden coaster takes flight through a figure-eight under a steel giant. This family favorite roller coaster is the oldest in the park, helping create “First Roller Coaster” family traditions in the Lehigh Valley since its inception in 1923.
