Exciting news is brewing at Paultons Park, as the park prepares for a brand-new themed area set to open in 2026, and it’s expected to have a Viking theme! While details are still scarce, fans and visitors are buzzing with anticipation about what this new area will bring. However, one intriguing hint has surfaced through the park's ride availability page, sparking speculation that a long-time favorite ride might be removed or relocated to make way for the new Vikings area.


Cobra, one of Paultons Park’s most iconic roller coasters, is scheduled to be closed from 8th September 2025 until at least 30th April 2026. This extended closure coincides with the timeline for the Vikings area construction, leading many to wonder if Cobra will either be re-themed or removed entirely to accommodate the new attractions. Cobra has been a thrilling staple in the park for years, and the idea of it being replaced or relocated is a major talking point among Paultons enthusiasts.


Could Cobra be part of the Vikings’ plans, perhaps reimagined to fit the new theme? Or will this beloved ride make way for fresh experiences inspired by Viking culture? Only time will tell, but the closure through early 2026 certainly has us curious.


As the 2026 opening approaches, excitement continues to build, and fans can’t wait to find out more about what Paultons Park has in store for this epic new adventure!
