Who Can Ride?

The Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster is fun for everyone. Riders can enjoy the Gatlinburg Coaster alone if the rider is at least 56” tall, or with a friend if one rider is at least 16 years of age with valid ID.

How Do I Get To The Top?

No Uphill Walking Required! Instead, our uphill lift system will carry you to the top, just sit back and enjoy the view. Then, once you reach the top, away you go down the mountain in your coaster car (single or double) with individual speed controls that let you set your speed. The track carries you up and over the forest floor with lots of twists, curves and surprises. Remember, the coaster is silent, but you don’t have to be!

When To Ride?

Ride the Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster during the day and then come back at night for an after-dark experience! We are open year-round, rain, snow and shine!
