Lightning Peaks

Overview
''The beautiful mountains of Lightning Peaks are popular with walkers and sightseers. Use the available land to attract a new thrill-seeking clientele.''

This park has every original RCT attraction and scenery available for research.

This park basically consists of four separate mountains connected via pathways, as well as two chairlifts: One from the entrance to the top, and the other connecting two peaks. Although the park is big, there is almost no flat land. This makes it very difficult for the player to build rides effectively and to connect entrances and exits to the existing pathways. There are a lot of trees in the park too, hindering the players progress. The name Lightning Peaks is also very descriptive of the Park's weather: it almost always rains with constant thunderstorms that can easilly deter guests from Roller Coasters and other open air track rides. However, it does provide an opertunity to sell hundreds of umbrellas from an Information Kiosk.

You start this scenario with a loan of $5,000 out of a possible maximum of $15,000.

Scenario Guide
The park is broken up into several mountains and a long pathway from the bottom to the summit of the first peak. There are chairlifts connecting the entrance and the peak.

Since the guests are concentrated in this area, build non-tracked rides along the pathway, and roller coasters near the top. Roller coasters can either be a compact chain-lift design or a few powered launch designs. Make sure to place shops, stalls, and bathrooms at the entrance and peak.



Once you run out of space at the top, progress to the other peaks in the same fashion. Make sure a chairlift connects each peak. Shops and stalls should be placed at logical intervals.

If you can afford it, you can build a Steel Roller Coaster with two stations that connect two of the peaks. Don't build it too intense and lots of guests will come to your park.
