This index currently lists a height minimum for 8 Alton Towers rides, from 90 cm up to 140 cm. Use the table to split the group, then confirm the live rule at the park.
Alton Towers opening times
Alton Towers publishes hours per date. Summer, term-time and event nights are different lengths of day. Here is how to turn that calendar into a realistic first-and-last hour, without inventing a schedule.
Thorpe Park height restrictions
This index lists 6 Thorpe Park rides with a height minimum. 5 of them are 140 cm. Hyperia is the outlier at 130 cm. That is the group-planning fact, not a generic “check the park” paragraph.
