The Scrambler is an old favorite. It has been around for a long time but spinning around and being tossed from one side of the ride to the other is just a thrill at any age.

This is a fun ride for the whole family.

8 Riders on each side of the swing, allowing a total of 16 guests at a time, the Barnstormer swings you like a Pendulum back and forth reaching a full 45 miles an hour through the final swings. It is a great thrill even for the younger kids.

It might not hold this title for long (because all records are bound to be broken) but as of its debut in 2016, the Lightning Rod, Wooden Roller Coaster in Dollywood is the fastest Wooden Roller Coaster ever built. Not only is it fast, it is a Launch Coaster which is not what you think of when getting on a Wooden ride. Taking you up 20 stories on the first hill and getting up to 45 mph at the top, your airtime starts here and doesn’t stop until the end of the 3,800 feet of track. Hitting a top speed of 73 mph, it is easily the fastest Wooden Coaster in the World!

The Mystery Mine is a suspenseful, steel roller coaster that runs through a dark mine shaft where you start your climb straight up, actually at 95 degrees, heading out on the remaining 1,800 foot of track. This is not for the weak at heart mind you but if you dare and are up to the thrilling challenge, the Mystery Mine is a great coaster for enthusiasts.

A great way to break the younger kids in on their first Roller Coaster experience is to take them on the FireChaser Express. This small steel coaster is smooth and does not have any loops.
