Regularly appearing in lists of the Top 10 steel coasters in the world, Nemesis is a masterpiece. Opened as Europe’s first inverted coaster, the ride is half buried to allow for the restrictive limits on the maximum height of rides imposed on Alton Towers. It doesn’t feature any trims or midcourse brakes, ensuring one of the most intense coaster experiences available.
