Hey, guys i'm originally from Kentucky where we have paramounts kings island within a 2 hour drive. After being spoiled by that, Univerval Stuidos & Disney World I tried out hershey park last year and thought it was a joke. I had plans of hitting up Six Flags in Jackson, NJ but KingDA KA has not opened yet so I have no desire to hit that till that ride opens.

What are the others in the area that are any good? I'm looking for a park with the fastest tallest rides and has a few of them minimal trust me kings island spoils a person but I have the need for some coasters and am not about to drive 10 hours!!!!

thanks for the help

Hershey park is awesome i dont know what your talkin bout haha! But thats your opinion......anyways in the area

Dorney Park - Allentown ,PA
Cedar point- Sandusky ,Ohio
Six Flags- Maryland

Cedar Point > *

also i forgot

Kennywood- Pittsburgh ,PA


that and cedar point are both amazing!

Paramount's Kings Dominion is just north of richmond (1-1.5 hours from DC)

My wife is from Pittsburgh and we go to Kennywood all the time, its old school, that whats great about it.

We went to Hershey Park last year and that was really cool. If you like big coasters then kings Dominion is the place.

Six Flags in Jersey > Six Flags in Maryland

You can't lose around here. You can saturate your craving for rides with Kings Dominion, Six Flags, AND Busch Gardens. All of them are within day trip range. I say, try them all. They each have something to offer.
