Thrill ride ratings
Hersheypark uses a ride ratings system to alert guests to the aggressiveness of the ride. The "Ratings" for each ride are as follows: (descriptions come from the 2007 edition of the map of Hersheypark)


 * 1: Children's Ride: This is a low-speed, gentle ride intended for young children and may accommodate chaperones where permitted.
 * 2: Mild Thrill Ride: This is a low to medium speed ride with expected changes in elevation and speed. This ride may require some rider body control and is not recommended for unaccompanied toddlers or very small children.
 * 3: Moderate Thrill Ride: This is a medium speed ride where riders may experience unexpected changes in elevation and speed. This ride may contain moderate twists, turns, bumps, spins and loops and may require some rider body control.
 * 4: High Thrill Ride: This is a fast-paced ride experience with unexpected changes in speed, direction and/or elevation. This ride may contain significant twists, turns, bumps, spins, and loops and requires full rider body control.
 * 5: Aggressive Thrill Ride: This is a high-speed ride experience. Riders will experience many unexpected rapid changes in speed, direction, and/or elevation and requires full rider body control. This ride is not recommended for guests with physical, cognitive, and/or medical limitations.

Height categories
Hersheypark uses Hershey Company products as names for each height range to determine who can ride which rides.

All measurements are in inches:
 * Miniatures: 0 - 36 (3' and below)
 * Kisses: 36 - 42 (3' - 3'6")
 * Reese's: 42 - 48 (3'6" - 4')
 * Hershey's: 48 - 54 (4' - 4'6")
 * Twizzler: 54 - 60 (4'6" - 5')
 * Jolly Rancher: 60 and above (5' and above)

In the list below, height categories are abbreviated to the first letter of the category, bolded above. A single asterisk * next to the height category means that they must ride with a responsible rider, and a triple asterisk *** means they must be with a responsible rider that can swim.
