Top 15 Rides at Parc Asterix

Parc Asterix is a theme park just north of Paris. Owned by Compagnie des Alpes, this park is themed to the Asterix comic books. And it's the best thrill park in all of France. It has 8 different roller coasters, including the brand new Toutatis. And it also has some notable non-coasters, including a quartet of water rides. So in this video, I will rank the park's top 15 rides.

Disneyland Paris: we can’t build a splash mountain due to Paris weather

Parc Asterix: ok, we need two log flumes and two rapids

[Saucion]

The boats on Mehnir Express aren’t logs, they’re menhirs as the name implies. They’re basically big pointy rocks that Obelix often carries on his back in the comics.

1:25 from the comics you know you should never call Obelix fat or he will make steak tartar out of you.

Went to the park yesterday. Toutatis, Tonnerre 2 Zeus and Oziris are great. Toutatis jumped into my top 5. Tonnerre likely would have if it was running with the backward last row 😢 Oziris beats Batman the Ride SFGA and Great Bear by a wide margin. Agree that Goudurix, while rough, is tolerable. Like Skyrush’s old restraints, I feel the complaints were overblown. Trace was ok. Skipped Pegase as the wait was nearly a hour. Great views from the skybar and didn’t ride any other non coasters. Overall, would recommend the park and will visit again during my next trip to Paris. Keep up the good work Canobie

There’s supposed to be another preshow in the madhouse where Cesar himself greets you and stuff, but unfortunately the park doesn’t seem to care enough about that attraction.I think you can consider yourself lucky that you experienced the two other preshows.

1:26 OBELIX ISN’T FAT HE JUST HAS HEAVY BONES. That is at least what he claims himself

I've been here a few weeks ago. For me the Oziris was more fun than the Toutatis, it felt like I was flying. And the wooden Zeus coaster was not my thing, I found it rougher than the Goudrix. The sounds that thing made haha.

My top 10 at this park:
1. Toutatis
my no.1 coaster I’ve ever ridden, absolute 10/10
2. Tonnerre Deux Zeus (backwards)
My goodness this is wild, how did engineering come to this lol
3. Oziris
Unfortunately wasn’t able to get front row on it, but still a great ride in the middle of the train, looks stunning off-ride as well
4. Pegasé Express
Best family coaster I’ve ever ridden, incredible
5. Tonnerre Deux Zeus
Forwards quite disappointing and bumpy
6. Romelus et Rapidis
Good rapids that can get you quite wet and has some great interaction with Pegasé Express
7. Goudurix
As you said, tracking is mostly tolerable and it’s a quite well designed layout
8. Le Vol Di’Care
I found it tolerable and fun, also the queue was very well themed
9. La Tracé Du Hourra
still not a fan of the vibrations on Mack’s bobsleds
10. Menhir Express
would be great if I wouldn’t slam my knees into the sides of the flume every time it turned

Note that I missed out on the boat ride and madhouse mentioned here, as I didn’t know they existed at the time of my visit, I bet that both would’ve had a good shot at making the top 10.

7:41 that zero g roll looks like something straight out of planet coaster

[bettercallgabriel]

Gordurix wasn't a problem for me too!! I mean, as a Brazilian i'm used to vekoma coasters hahaha and this one was actually smoother than the ones I used to ride

[robbiereacts]

Please do a top 25 favorite coasters in France. I’d love to see you do that.

[TheFirstDrop]

We really enjoyed Parc Asterix. A must do when in the area for Disneyland Paris

[bettercallgabriel]

Tonerre de Zeus was my first wooden coaster and damn it looks so much more amazing now, and in 2011 when i rode it it was already super fun

[BaronDiacre]

This park has one of the best top3, agree. And this park is gonna only get better and better, with the addition of an highly-themed innovative lsm spinning from Gerschlauer this year, the makeover of the greek area next year. Plus the future indoor London-themed zone in 2027 that will featured an multi-coaster from Intamin.

[Saucion]

Obelix is not fat! At least don’t tell him that personally or he’ll slap you into the sky

[CowsiinCoasters]

love the video! do you plan on doing a review for this park?

[marcustulliuscicero]

"Obelix is a fat man"

Famous last words

[RKGE]

Interesting top 15 since I don't have the same at all 😂 (except for some attractions). Like, Grand Splatch look so low down (nearly in the top 5 for me). Moreover, I can understand the placement for Défi de César with all the scenes but now without and some Screen issues, it's certainly one of the worst in the park 😬 Btw I'd like to see where you put OG TDZ (before retracking)

[mitchellries]

Will tou have a review of Pegasus Express? I'd love to know if you prefer that or Firechaser Express at Dollywood more.

[thrillridefreak]

I like how Tonnerre "2" Zeus is number "2" on the list lmao.
