The Bat

""Taking a ride on 'The Bat' at Kings Island has turned into a family tradition for us, especially since it became my 7-year-old daughter's favorite ride! The thrill of the suspended coaster, swooping and diving like a bat, is exhilarating without being too intense for younger riders. The smooth twists and turns have her giggling with joy, and the ride's theme and design have completely captured her imagination. The staff always ensures safety, making sure everyone is securely fastened and comfortable. We've made unforgettable memories on 'The Bat,' and we look forward to many more rides in the future. A must-try for families looking to share an adventurous and fun experience together!""

"The Bat!! What a cool ride. The station is tucked away from everything else in the park so it’s a bit of a walk but worth checking out for sure. The cars really swing you around so hang on if you don’t want to be slammed into the restraint."

"Very fun ride, not too intense but still has some good forces. Pretty short all things considered but the pacing is great so it’s not a big deal. Plus the line is never long, bit of a hike though!"

"'The Bat' will forever be remembered as 'Top Gun', too me! This ride was a childhood favorite, swinging around or waiting in line, with The Top Gun song playing, I always felt on top of the world. The ride itself only boast a top speed of 51mph with a 70 foot drop but the illusion that you are literally going to fly off the track with some of the twist and turns, is always fun. It's a bumpy and rough rider, compared to coasters of today, but I am OK with that. An oldie-but a goodie. The Hike to and from the coaster is quite the walk but I enjoy the bit of isolation from the rest of the park for a few. Nice fun coaster. Everything that 'The Iron Dragon' at Cedar Point, should and could have been, but wasn't."
