The Experience of The Ba Na Hills Roller Coaster

The Ba Na Hills roller coaster is for anyone who is pumped up on adrenaline. At the start, you will get into a small alpine coaster cart, lie back, buckle in, and control your own speed with a hand brake.
I remember my first ride, when I went through the gates, my heart started racing, and as soon as the cart started rolling out of the station.
The best part about this ride is that YOU choose how fast you want to go; you could go slow to take in all the scenery, or you could choose to go at a fast and furious pace.

Different Roller Coasters at Ba Na Hills

Ba Na Hills actually has three different alpine coasters:

Outside of Fantasy Park: This is the most popular and very easy to find.
Inside of Fantasy Park (Ground Floor): If you want to mix it up with other indoor experiences.
In the French Village - This Alpine Coaster is tucked away in a corner, making it a little quieter without the noise of many tourists.

All three coasters seem to be similar in length, so the best one depends on your location and the current crowd.

Tips for Riding the Roller Coaster at Ba Na Hills

Ticket Price

One ride is 70,000 VND per person (for riders over 1.4m tall). Kids from 1m to 1.4m tall ride for free, but must sit with an adult. No riders under 1m can ride.

Can Two People Ride Together?

Yes! In fact, riding with a friend or family member can be more fun

How Can I Save Time in the Queue?

Queues can be long, especially on weekends and holidays. Here is how I beat the worst of it:
Take a short walk around first, and check which coaster has the least amount of people before you start waiting in the line-up.
Buy a WOW PASS Gold (1,000,000 VND per person), which gives you priority for all Ba Na Hills attractions, including the roller coaster, and an exclusive VIP lane for the cable car.

If you are looking for a memorable day trip, the Ba Na Hills & Golden Hand Bridge is highly recommended. This private experience not only takes you to the iconic Golden Bridge but also allows you to explore French-inspired architecture, enjoy panoramic views, and have fun at Fantasy Park – all in one day.

Safety Reminders for the Ride

Like any ride, there are rules to keep you safe:

Who should not ride: People with heart conditions, spine problems, recent injuries, a big fear of heights, or who do not meet height requirements.
Always use both brakes: You need both hands to control speed. You should never use one hand or take your hand off completely.
No horseplay: Don't remove your safety belt.
Don't carry loose personal items: You will need both hands on the brake, and you don't want to be holding a phone, camera, or handbag while riding.
