- Is this the worlds greatest wooden roller coaster? Some would argue its the worlds greatest roller coaster, period! The Voyage packs in a bunch of fast paced airtime hills and banked turns during an absolutely insane ride experience, that is non stop till you hit the brakes!

Honestly, Holiday World don’t miss. Their 4 main coasters are all fantastic rides. The Voyage being arguably the best wooden coaster ever.
You can tell that Holiday World puts a lot of effort into maintaining this ride to be the best that it can be. I mean, they retrack a lot of the ride every year to ensure its smoothness, and also contracts The Gravity Group to redo entire sections and re-align the ledgers of the structure to keep it even more smoother. Holiday World must spend a lot of money to retrack and maintain The Voyage every year, but they do a fantastic job.
They also use a completely different type of wood then most parks, Ipe wood is denser and stronger then yellow pine. This makes the bending and installation more lengthy and costly but ensures a stronger more durable track in-between retracks.
@@billsskiefc Ah yes~~ much more expensive than southern yellow pine, but kudos to Holiday World for using ipe wood to ensure the durability
Even as somebody who's ridden The Voyage about a dozen times, it's still tough to believe this thing is real.
IT NEVER ENDS!!!!!
Man these povs have gotten 10x better
I LOVE HOLIDAY WORLD. Everything about it.
Top of my bucket list. Can't wait to get up to holiday world to ride
Finally worked up the nerve to ride this yesterday. To anybody worried about riding I’m just gonna say get in line, and get on it. After that there’s no going back and you will enjoy it lol definitely intense but 100% fun as hell
I know it’s been a long time since I’ve been there, but I don’t remember trim brakes before the triple drop. When I rode early, not long after it’s opening, if there were trims they were barely tapped. Flying like a bat out of hell on that back section and into the drop was awesome, especially in the dark!
Also there were 7 cars back then. I couldn't imagine how insane it was in the back row.
i love this roller coaster sm, but the HEADACHE this gives me afterwards kills me
Now that TT2 is most likely a failed experiment, the Voyage is back to my number 1!
One of my bucket list coasters. Just looks awesome
I live in Portland, Oregon... Probably one of the furthest places away from Holiday World... You need to find a way to ride it
@@Mattsc1974 yeah, I'm in Scotland, UK so a little bit further but definitely needs to happen.
This roller coaster is so much fun
really hoping to get to hollywood nights next year and ride this. Such an incredible looking ride.
This coaster is insane!
Dayem....I need to be on this ride!!!
question: are overbanked turns on a wooden coaster like over 70-90° or is it only at the 100-120°
it’s crazy how much it hauls even after the trims
Best wooden coaster to me
Imagine if this was RMCed but the looks of it is a beast of a woodie
I have a fear of heights but I rode it and I had so much fun on it especially right after the drop on the hill you get crazy airtime
Im going this weekend to Holiday World. How scary is it? I love wooden rollar coasters but this looks insane lol
Made a visit to Holiday World today from Cincinnati and I have to say, the coasters are just absolutely phenomenal, but Voyage was the only one where I went from "WHOA" to "WOO," the whole park surprised me at the quality of their coasters for a family park. They're excellent.
Definitely looks insane
Smooth. Nice!
Thank you for the video of my number one favorite wood coaster. I have not ridden The Voyage since its first few years when it ran the seven car PTC train and it did not have trim brakes. (They were just block brakes back then.) For those that also rode it back then, how have the changes affected the ride, if at all?
@Locoboy 5150 the changes are minimal. The extra car on the longer train did make for slightly more ridiculous ejector on the first drop but it's still outstanding with the shorter train. The trims do have a noticeable impact, about 3 seconds slower, but the profile is so brilliant you don't know you're missing the speed as you careen back downhill.
The changes were made to make the ride more durable (lighter train slightly slower) and they still have to spend a small fortune on maintenance. But as a fellow enthusiast I can 100% say Will Koch would do it and I'm so glad his family continue to.
And those trimless rides, while unicorns, are heavenly. They just can't run it like that all day, every day, so to get even one is a special treat. To get dozens...we just don't know how lucky we are.
@@ChrisStephenHP Thank you Chris! I was so afraid that the trim brakes might have killed the second half of the ride.
Is more amazing how the guy rides the whole ride does not make one noise
I have ridden over 500 coasters in my life and this has always been my number 1 since I have ridden it and call me OLD but I put NITRO at numb 2. I am not a fan of ejector AT ALL that's why I ABHOR RMC's but I love floater and quick transitions/speed.
Has it gotten any rougher over the years at all?
Holiday World maintenance and upkeep is unmatched. When it does get rough, it won’t be the next year
Me and my obsession will be reunited June 2
This thing is well over a mile long and still needed trims... (I'm sure they are also there as block zone splits too)
The best Woody in the world
I'm shocked at how fast this ride goes
Bro those trim brakes did very little this thing just keeps going
How fast is the ride I'm curious 🧐🤓🤔
67 mph
If you guys want to experience a triple down but cheaper? Come to Bay Beach Amusement Park in Green Bay, WI, for less than $1 you can ride our slide which has a triple down! Yes I'm also referencing the coaster idiots.
This must be the best wooden coaster in the world right?
Many do consider it so. Typically people have this or El Toro as their favorite
El toro
Wodin has entered the room
It’s up there in a lot of ppls rankings. It just depends on personal tastes. When it first opened and was glass smooth it was my #1, not anymore as it suffers from the same thing (imo) all steel structure woodies do: it doesn’t have as much give so the track because even more rough than a (complete) trad woodie.
Personally my favorites Phoenix, Lightning Racer, El Toro, Ravine Flyer 2
@@jarrodholbrook6176 ligtnining racer is so nistolgic for me lmao. I remeber lapping it 15 times one night
This is Indiana's largest roller coaster.
Is this thing better than El Toro or The Beast tho?
El Toro- debatable. The Beast? Absolutely
@@CoasterStudios The Beast slaps, alright? It's my number 1 traditional woodie, with El Toro as my number 1 woodie overall
yall got to get a ride on it this year its even more insane!!! i didnt know where i was after i got off of this thing in 2024 i thought i flew off the earth. i looked like joe biden trying to find his way off the stage.
imagine someone builds a wooden coaster capable of going 100mph.
World's greatest woodie? You bet. World's greatest overall coaster? Fury 325 MIGHT have a claim in that.
Who else got into HWN?
I did!
@@ChasingThrills W
What is "HWN"?
@@detroitdiezel7856 Holliwood Nights
@@ChasingThrills what's that?
How is bro not screaming💀
I forgot how fast it was.
long n boring ... except at night when it's just long
your the only person in the world who has ever said voyage is boring
I’m amazed at how well this thing maintains momentum throughout such a long track.
It’s elevation as voyage is pretty much on valleys and hills
The secret is the first part from the first drop and first few hills actually goes uphill, the twister section is kind of elevated way above station height, and the return run is all downhill. Literally perfect use of the terrain for a woodie.
@@lyingdogfacedponysoldier201 exactly!
It’s also because steel wheels on steel track strips are very low friction vs el Toro with polyurethane wheels bleeds speed way quicker but is “smoother”
I could see how smooth the ride is.
Wow! I've never been to Holiday World, but everyone says how awesome this coaster is. I've never seen a POV of this until now, and this thing just cooks!! Especially on the return back!! Holy sh!t, this coaster just flies!!!
Relentless until those final brakes. Even the mid course brake area and drop has venom
It really is just about perfect. Highly recommend making the trip because they have 3 great wooden coasters.
@@blakewoods9044 I heard a night ride on this the absolute best. But from what I'm told, it's best to go when they have HolliWood Nights 🌙 True?
@@detroitdiezel7856 yes, the best night ride is Voyage and Raven but before the sun goes down, the Legend has the best dusky ride. If you can’t make it to the nights event, you can get night rides the last couple weeks in October. They won’t be trimmless but still very worth it.
Holiday World Rules. Free parking, free unlimited soft drinks, free sunscreen, awesome water park, it's always super clean. Four of the best roller coasters ever made.
Arguably the best woody in the world. This coaster has it all. Everything you want in a classic wooden coaster.
The insane first half would easily be enough to make this a world class wooden coaster, but then there's this crazy second half, just in case you needed a "little" extra. Great ride!
This literally put a smile on my face for the second half of the ride. . . "How is this thing still going!?" Looks so fun.
It certainly is a lot of fun.
The Beast at Kings Island did this better
The Beast has two lift hills and hundreds of feet of straight track 💀 how is it better?
Mate, Kings Island is my home park and I have to say that Voyage puts it to shame.
The best wooden coaster on the planet
The beast at king's island
@@Danny-jb6pg great ride, but I’ll take this one
Voyage is an absolutely incredible masterpiece
masterpiece of a woodie. I will probably never get to ride it, but this looks like a fantastic coaster
My home park and I can say after almost 100 rides on it it’s in my top 10 roller coaster list, it levels up to Steele vengeance at cedar point which is absolutely insane
I would like to ride this one day. I have heard nothing but good things about this coaster and just by looking at the pov, I can tell this will probably be my favorite wooden roller coaster when I ride it.
The Voyage is the best wooden roller coaster ever and one of the best overall. It's my number 4. Also, the night ride on this, especially in the cool night air of October, can't be beat! For anyone who's never visited I highly encourage you to go asap.
You could ride Kind Ka 4 times (25 sec from launch to brakes) in the time it takes for Voyage to leave the lift to final brakes (100 sec). Crazy.
I rode this for the first time this year and it is my number 1 over rides like Lrod and Velocicoaster. It was running pretty rough this year but that didn’t take away the fun. This ride really is pure mastery.
Best POV I've ever seen of the best ride I've ever ridden!! #1/272 and it'll probably stay that way for a long, long time. I value genius engineering in my rankings.
Putting together my list of parks to go to after we move to the East Coast early next year (there's a good chance we end up living only an hour away from Carowinds) and I'll have to make sure to get to Holiday World at some point.
Still my favorite wood coaster of all time!
I will go ride this!
My No. 1 Favortie Wooden Coaster this ride is mind blowing
Wow, this thing goes forever. I saw a trim brake before one of the tunnels that did slow the train down, but it still kept haulin'
I really want to go back to holiday world
The Voyage is the GOAT. Others may have more history or stats but this has anything you would ever want in a woodie.
The one time went on this coaster, (I was 12 or 13) nobody was allowed to be alone, and all my cousins wanted to ride so I had to go too. I cried the whole way through because it was so fast😂😂😂😂
Not to be a hater, but I rode this about 6 years ago and I decided never again. Roughest woodie I've ever been on, and that includes the other woodies at HW. Punishing is the only adjective that adequately captures the experience. First coaster that ever hurt me to the point that I had to sit down and rest after the ride. Never in my life had I been on a coaster that I just wanted to stop until I rode this one. It is an insane ride and a long one for sure. Perhaps I'll give it another go one day in hopes that it's smoother.
The Raven is worse ......
It is much smoother now and generally my favorite coaster I have ever ridden
We went to holiday world in indiana we went on that ride and as soon as we got to the top I was already scared I don't like that it was going 180 mph
Considering it nearly comes to a complete stop at the mid-course trim brakes, I'd like to know its top speed on the second half of the track.
I think I've read that the first half is a normal wooden coaster built on top of a big hill, and that midcourse brake is at ground level but _still on top of the hill_ which is why it it doesn't seem like you're high up but the track can do a triple-down in the tunnel and is still running constantly downhill in the back half to keep the speed going.
Waited for an hour in a still for this ride last year just to figure out a deer was on the track and wouldn’t move
I would love for her to be re done by RMC she’s intense now she’s be so much more fun as a steelie
Holy Moses thats fast
This is on my bucket list
getting a night ride on this is on my bucket list too
Me too, I might go this year
Very cool.
This is insane!
This is an awesome coaster. So many comment about how impressive the length is but what's actually impressive is what it does with that length. So many elements and never letting up (unlike another wooden coaster in the woods with impressive length butva lot of strait track). That's what good terrain usage will do. While I do wish they'd swap out the restraints (I understand buzbars probably wouldn't be safe but it definately should be possible to hybridify the trains-PTC chassis, Gravity Group lapbars) I won't complain about the restraints too much, doing that layout in a PTC train is the closest you can get in the real world to barreling down Glacier Gulch from The Polar Express (something I always fantacised about doing). Because it's such a great ride I bought the ornament (I display it year round on my witch alter) and a shirt that has a picture of the coaster on it.
Wow!! That really was a voyage!!
I doubt they will ever make a true blue woodie as good as this one. 😊
I gotta eventually get back down to HW and ride this again. It was incredible. Is it weird that I MUCH preferred it in the front over the back? That's usually not the case with me and wooden coasters.
I’ve been on this ride before I’ve been to holiday world loads of times I think this ride was my 4th roller coaster but my first one was thunderbird
I'd love to ride this omg
Rode this for the first time last year, that thing hauls ass through its layout like it’s nobody’s business and it’s glorious
It’s like somebody turned down the friction settings in planet coaster
Most accurate pov so far g3tting closer and closer to capturing the true essence of this monster
Wow! This coaster sounds like a bumblebee!
The triple down in the tunnel is amazing!!!
Rode this one twice today - riding the back seat was way intense
The height of the first lift hill is actually 163 feet.
what the hell that looks amazing
Bet the night time rides are awesome..
I really need to ride this trimless
Absolute beauty! Speedy and long!
This coaster is dope.
it looks like its going like 100 mph until the end
It was thrilling when I went there!😂
All I can say is.... WOW!!
Damm that looks fun
A str8 BEAST!!🔥🔥🔥🎢
It's a top ten tier coaster.
Wow does this thing seem absolutely insane.
