PRO TIP: Ride the NEW Wisconsin Dells Mountain Coaster
We Tried the NEW Wisconsin Dells Mountain Coaster in May 2026 and it was SO much fun!
There is a NEW attraction in Wisconsin Dells and after experiencing it with my family, I can confidently say… it is absolutely worth adding to your next Dells trip itinerary!
The Wisconsin Dells Mountain Coaster is the first and only mountain coaster located near the top attractions in Wisconsin Dells, and we had an absolute blast riding it together.
I will admit, before we got on, I was not exactly sure what to expect. A coaster that can reach speeds up to 30 mph sounded exciting… but also a little intimidating with kids. But the second we started riding, all those nerves disappeared. We were laughing, smiling, and yelling “WOOHOO!” the entire time. In fact, we loved it so much we ended up riding THREE times!
One thing I really appreciated as a parent is that the experience starts with a relaxing scenic ride up the hill. Once you reach the top, you are in control. Riders control the speed and breaks the entire way down, which made it feel exciting while still comfortable for our family.
My 6 year old rode with me and my 8 year old rode with her dad for the first lap. Then we switched riders for the next two rides so we each got to experience it together. It honestly ended up being one of those family moments we will all remember.
Here are the riding requirements to know before you go:
- Minimum Height to Ride: Must be 38 inches tall and accompanied by someone at least 16 years old
- Minimum Height to Drive: Must be 56 inches tall to drive the coaster cart independently regardless of age
After riding, we headed over to the Gem Mining station, and this was SUCH a hit with my kids. We purchased a gem mining bag and uncovered fossils, emeralds, crystals, and other treasures together.
There is a really nice, shaded area with picnic tables and umbrellas where parents can relax while kids mine. Or you can jump in and help uncover treasures together like we did. Once finished, the kids received a bag to bring all their gems home. My kids immediately sorted and traded theirs afterward and carefully stored them in containers once we got home.
Between the mountain coaster and gem mining, this ended up being one of our favorite family stops in Wisconsin Dells. The combination of excitement, family friendly fun, and interactive activities made it such a memorable experience. Not to mention the service was perfect!
Next time we are in Wisconsin Dells, we will absolutely be back for another ride… or maybe three again
