Opened in 1997 and built by Custom Coasters International, it is the 3rd longest wooden coaster in Europe after Coaster express and Colossos, with a track length of 1230m (4044 feet). It is also considered one of the top roller coasters in Europe, even in the World (the only 3-time number 1 spot best wooden coaster poll) The coaster has a 30m (98-foot) tall lift hill, a first drop into a tunnel, and two helices.

"Tonnerre de Zeus" is French for "Thunder of Zeus." In Greek mythology, Zeus was regarded as the king of gods. He also is often associated as being a weather god, hurling a thunderbolt at those who displeased him.
