Fun, safe for all of the family and its well organized! It was my first time riding something like this. We seen it advertised everywhere. I came with my boyfriends family, his siblings and their kids. When we parked there was a bit of a line. However, the line moved fairly quick. You buy your ticket, stand in line... and the ushers secure you onto one of the coasters. It's great for all ages! If your kid is small, you can ride with your kid. The views were nice and some parts went really fast! I'd definitely go again! The total ride down the mountain is pretty lengthy. I should've wrote my review earlier because the guy told me how long it takes to ride down the mountain.... approximately 10 minutes? Correct me if I'm wrong. But it's a nice ride down. Don't forget to smile when the signs say to smile because they take photos of you along the ride. At the end of the ride, you enter the gift shop where you can see all your photos. The photos were the normal expensive tourist price, but it's worth capturing the moment :) Definitely a "must-do" when visiting Pigeon Forge! read more

Rocky Top Mountain Coaster - So much fun!!! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Such a cool and unique experience in Gatlinburg! I feel like everyone should try it at least once while they're there. The ride itself was really fun and I ended up riding it twice because once was not enough lol. The views weren't anything super special to me but the random funny bear props along the ride had us laughing Definitely one of the more memorable attractions we did. read more

The coaster was lots of fun! Staff were very friendly and we used a coupon from the coupon books all over town for $3 off. The coaster is a bit slow on the inclines but quick on the drops and enjoyable overall. Good to not that they take three photos of you throughout the ride. read more

I wish I could give this place 10 stars. The first night we went it rained and we got this cool see through cover and then there was lightning so the 4 remaining riders in our party couldn't go. The manager gave us all more tickets to come back another day and when we returned two days later, they gave us each and extra ride and because it was father's day the two dad's in our party got free photos. Not to mention my husband and I agree it's the best mountain coaster we've ever been on. Even the line was fun because they played tunes and everyone was singing. read more

Always wanted to try a mountain coaster ever since I saw one. Finally got to on my recent vacation in the area. My brother suggested this place out of all the ones we looked up and it was amazing. Your recorded the whole time and can buy the video or just a pic at the end. read more

First-Time Riders - Great Experience! This was our first time on a mountain roller coaster and it did not disappoint! The ride is smooth, fun, and you get to control your own speed, which makes it great for both thrill-seekers and those who want to take it slow. There are several automatic uphill pull sections, and the rest is all you - twisting, turning, and flying through the woods with some cute little set-ups along the way. Not a lot of "mountains views" noted. You do need to pay attention to the slow signs throughout the track Tips: * If you're a first responder, nurse, or teacher, don't miss the discount - rides are only $9 for you (I unfortunately missed mine ). That's also the cost if you want to re-ride the same day! Overall, a must-do experience if you're in the area! read more

Well it was a 4th of July birthday weekend and a co worker recommended trying this alpine roller coaster. There are many of them in Pigeon Forge Tennessee but he told me this one was the best because it's longer for 20 minutes. They are not your usual amusement park roller coasters because once you reach the top with cables you control the speed. It was worth the $18. Do try it as well as Dollywood read more

When I told people we were going on vacation to Pigeon Forge SO many people suggested that we do a mountain coaster, and boy am I glad that we picked this one!! It is advertised as the longest mountain coaster in TN and that is one of the reasons we picked it. It is also located right down the street from Dollywood, which is super convenient. The views were amazing and the track was so much fun. It included 4 uphills and 4 downhills and you really pick up some great speed on the downhills! They have audio playing at the top of the hills that tells you when to push your handles down to begin to pick up speed. We had such a fun time on our ride that we paid $9 each to go on the coaster a second time. Each sled has a maximum weight of 350 pounds, but we elected to each have our own sled and I really am glad we did. This was one of our favorite things that we did on our vacation!! It will be a must do when we come back to Pigeon Forge. read more

This was my family's favorite activity in Pigeon Forge. It operates even during the dead of winter, so if you're visiting when it's cold outside like we were, be sure to bring your gloves and beanies. The wind is biting when you're on a coaster on a hill. This coaster is user-powered for the most part, so you get to decide how fast you go. My oldest child was zipping around pretty quickly, but my youngest went slower. I'm not a coaster person, so I stood on the side and took photos and videos. There are a few places to spectate where you can get some good shots. From start to finish, the whole thing takes about 20 minutes. The actual coaster ride is no longer than 10 minutes -- quicker if you go faster. But the cost is totally worth those quick several minutes. My kids were smiling and wanting to go on it again. read more

Had a good time here! The wait was long but that was to be expected on the 4th of July. Everyone was accommodating and helped to move the crowd as quickly as possible. They have the line under a cover so you don't roast and music playing to help pass the time. I wish it was a little bit longer of a ride but that's just me being greedy lol. If you haven't done one before give it a go, you'll have fun. read more

We went here and my kids and husband LOOOVED it ! I'm afraid of heights so it was a no for me but I wanted to go soooo bad after my family did. All they talked about was how fun it was. We went during December so it was pretty cold but they managed. Rode this a couple of times and was better experience than Dollywood. read more

This was pretty decent. I would give it 3.5 stars, rounding up to 4. We came here wanting to ride an Alpine coaster after being sorely disappointed at Oberlin Gatlinburg. We had wasted so much time at Oberlin that it got pretty late at that point, so we were grateful for the late closing time. I think the move is coming at night, it's fun the way it's lit up. It was Labor Day Weekend though and it was CROWDED with a super, super long line. Thank goodness for the ceiling fans in the waiting area, but they could use some more. Also thank goodness for the very fun and lively playlist going on, keeping everyone's morale up. Also shoutout to the safety videos playing, there was a lot of legitimately useful and helpful information conveyed there. When it was finally our turn, we got in our carts of either one or two riders. I ended up using the brakes in my cart quite a bit. The safety video said you could pretty much go as fast as you want (so long as you don't bump into the person in front of you), but I very much did not feel safe and like the cart was going to stay on the rails at full speed. I left a little shaken up after the ride. Overall, good experience. Would likely come back, hopefully with a shorter line. read more

We dropped in for a ride last summer. The Rocky Top Mountain Coaster lasts considerably longer than the 30 second ones at the local autumn fair and the little tableaus that are set up are fun and funny. We enjoyed ourselves and recommend you drop in and have a ball too. read more

I have to admit that I wasn't sure what to expect when we booked the Rocket Mountain Coaster, but I did know it was the 9 minute long ride. I don't think our ride lasted that long as I had the speed control forward just about the entire time. I was glad my astoundingly beautiful lady and I was able to ride the sled in tandem, so we can enjoy it together. We did arrive a bit early from Gatlinburg, so we waited about 30 minutes for it to get darker so we can enjoy the lit up track and we are so glad we did. We were delighted to find the sled does move significantly faster than we thought it would, and was quite entertaining when you build up full momentum. I wouldn't have mind going for a second round but the line did start building up at that point. We highly recommend this one! read more

Came first thing in the morning and only had a few people ahead of us waiting for cars. The staff was friendly and quick getting us our tickets. They offer a first responders discount which was very appreciated on my end. The ride itself was fun,., although I feel like every time I started getting my adrenaline up, I would hit one of the stopping points (waiting a good minute or so before I had some downhill movement again). While it was fun, I find it more of a young children's attraction. read more

Fun Coaster For Kids! This is one of the coasters that let our 36" tall kids ride. It's a great time for the little ones. We rode 3-4 times because my 3 year old son was a little scared the first ride but then was so happy and wanted to do it again and again! For adults it's a cool ride too, obviously not six flags level or an insane ride of terror, but a cool ride. Friendly staff and fun ride. read more

I came here to see my friend's memorial bench- and definitely brought the tears. I didn't realize they would have the pics on the board on the side and then the beach was beautiful. She always loved rocky top coaster mountain, riding it made me feel close to her. It was really fun, long, and well worth the price. I am so grateful to have something to visit and i will definitely visit every time i come! Sending love from Ohio read more

Fun coaster experience, but we told the guy at the start we wanted to go full speed so he'd allow room between us and the young family with their small children who went before us. We'll needless to say, our carts kept braking because we were getting to close to the people in front of us. Definitely a buzz-kill and ruined the ride for us. read more

Wow! We have never been on a mountain coaster and this one did not disappoint. Everyone had an amazing time and we were even able to capture the fun adventures in camera. We will definitely be back. read more

We all had such an amazing time of this coaster! We came at night and was able to experience the lights going down which made it even better! I rode solo and went flying!!!! No brakes required! Just joking! How could I forget the bomb music we were all jamming out to while in line waiting our turn!! Yesssss made the time go way faster read more

Very fun!! Great coaster! We went at night when it was dark and it was a blast going full speed! Definitely worth it!!

Great little roller coaster. Kids loved it so much they wanted to do it a second time (and we did). I would probably get the day pass next time, but for sure, I would come back. read more

This place was hands down the best one we rode!! First off let's talk about them giving first responders and teachers a 50% discount!! Thank you!!! Next let's talk about the track! Essentially it's 3 tracks in one and you keep rolling from one to the other! Love going fast?! Then open up the throttle and roll!! It's so fun! We had plans to go back the next evening and ride but the rain crashed our plans! It's definitely on the list for next time!! read more

Rocky Top Mountain Coaster - Let's roll!! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

This was so much fun. We did not expect how jarring it would be so if you have back issues etc this might not be for you. SO FRIGGEN FAST. We loved it but we're scared we would fall off. Amazing time and well worth the ticket prices (with the $3 off coupon from the coupon book for 2022-2023). Great time. Will do this again at night next time. read more

Super fun and different than what I'm used to. This was my first time on a mountain coaster and I liked that you could control your speed. Stopped at this coaster due to the reviews and that it was the longest ride. Would definitely do it again! Discount for nurses, police, etc. which was awesome- thank you for honoring those who serve! Also the music selection while waiting to get on the carts was good. When we were leaving we even heard some karaoke from the staff lol- loved the vibe read more

We took our four kids, 7-17, on all of the mountain coasters in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. This was the best, most enjoyable and longest of them all. Well worth the reasonable wait in line and within walking distance from the downtown hotels. Definitely a recommended activity. read more

Fun, fun,fun!!!! We had so much fun here we revisited this place twice in the same day. We experienced the coaster during the day and night. You are able to control your coaster speed and fill the wind in your hair. At night the coaster comes alive with lights. I'm sad that we weren't able to enjoy the video recording of your ride due to the weather but, hopefully in our next visit we will get the video recordings. I would definitely recommend this place for a nice thrill! read more

Great coaster! $18 for 4-6 minute ride. This is the best coaster in TN. The people are really great too. We went twice during vacation. Going after dark was great. Tip: if you want better pictures then go during the day. read more

Wow, wow, wow, Is all I can say for this fun filled attraction located near Dollywood theme park. Coupons are available for $3.00 off per person for your entire group. You can find them in any souvenir book you happen to pick up along the way. My daughter and I came here early evening when it wasn't too crowded. They honored my coupons and we went to ride. She suggested we ride together. She would control the braking mechanism and I could sit up front. Similar to wild mouse bobsleds we were given final instructions and ready for launch. Cute signs and music were along the pull up chains featuring black eur o peeing bears and Burma shave. Yes They even have a bear on top of a small waterfall. At the top signs give you the instructions to let go of the brake and enjoy the ride. This thing is almost like a regular coaster with twists and turns all over the place!! There are 4 mind you 4 lift chains at different parts of the ride and oh yes they do have a sign indicating at what certain point they will take your picture. The two of us had the time of our lives on this-whole ride lasted about 10 minutes. Only instructions are not to "hit" the car in front of you. That's really not a problem until you pull back into the station. The ride empties out into a gift shop where you can purchase your picture from the ride along with hillbilly redneck gifts, Tees, black bear and raccoon souvenirs. Pretty much the usual fare. Repeat rides are $9.00 per person considering the first ride was $15.00 per person with the discount. Staff here is very friendly and helpful. Only thing to be careful is that when you are leaving the premises there is no traffic light and you must cross 3 lanes of traffic if you wish to head back to Dollywood. Other than that a solid 5 star experience! read more

You have to do this. We took the family on multiple coasters this was our top pick. The night ride was awesome.

It was fun! It was a very long wait though. It was worth the wait and out family had fun.

Husband and I rode on three different mountain coasters while in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area and this one was by far our favorite. This mountain coaster boasts itself as the longest mountain coaster in East Tennessee, "over nine minutes" and it sure felt like it. There are many ups and downs on this coaster, where the other coaster we went on was one uphill climb followed by one looping downward ride. The ride felt quite fast, and I yelped quite a few times. There are two places where your photo is taken, and then they try to sell it to you for around $15 if I remember correctly. We meant to go back at night to see it all lit up, but we forgot to. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely ride this coaster again. read more

This was so much fun! Highly recommend this if you're in the area. You get to control how fast you go so you can go slow if you have small ones who might be more afraid or fast if you want a thrill. read more

Fun coaster ride. No issues. Easy to find. No lines when we went during week early in day.

Had a great time at the theme park and decided to try the Rocky Top Mountain Coaster since Dollywood closed prior to 10 PM and we had some extra time. This coaster is well worth the cost, as you get to ride for quite a awhile. We obviously did at night and that added an extra element of fun to it. The employees working here are also friendly and patient with any questions. Overall enjoyable experience! read more

We rode this coaster twice in one day. You get a half price discount for multiple rides. We experienced it during the day and at night.

Fun for all, our group were ages 14-67 great time.. pretty long ride.. the starter was fun for us..

My only disappointment was that they charge you extra if you are not using cash, which always feels like nickle and diming. Coaster was great, staff friendly and fun. Went for a night ride unsure of what would be seen but you're able to see quite a bit and they do a great job with lighting. The humor throughout was a nice added touch! The experience was comfortable and they use various break points which helps ensure that you don't have to worry about people stopping or going to slow as it helps make sure you're spaced far enough out from cart ahead of you. If you're expecting to have stellar mountain views or soar over empty heights you won't really find that here but the experience will still be an enjoyable one even if it is more entertainment than natural! Just remember to check out coupon cooks to get an extra discount - we were able to find $3 off in the "free map and smoky mountain coupon book" pamphlet. read more
