NEW! Rail Runner Mountain Coaster at Anakeesta
Anakeesta’s new single-rail mountain coaster is the first of
its kind in the United States! As a single-rail line, riders can
ride lower to the ground on a single track creating a thrilling
and unique experience as you race through the trees while
flying down the mountain. It also allows you to control your
own speed so if you prefer a slower pace you can do that
too! The Anakeesta Rail Runner takes you on an exhilarating
downhill ride with a 400 ft. elevation change and can
hit speeds of 25 mph. The ride begins with 1,600 feet of
downhill twists and turns and ends with a scenic uphill ride
back to the top of Anakeesta Mountain. Riders can ride solo
or tandem with a small child.
