Ride By South Dakota's Fall Foliage On The Rushmore Mountain Coaster

Do you have a need for speed that can only be satisfied with fast-paced thrills? If so, today’s post is just for you, as South Dakota is home to both an exciting amusement park and a fast-paced mountain coaster that is perfect for riding among the colorful fall foliage! Are you ready? Then fasten your seatbelt and hop on the unique Rushmore Mountain Coaster in South Dakota:

Located inside the Rush Mountain Adventure Park in Keystone, the Rushmore Mountain Coaster is both one of the park's newest and most popular attractions — and for a good reason!

Billed as being the "Black Hills' Biggest Thrill," the Rushmore Mountain Coaster is full of twists, turns, and steep inclines that can reach speeds of up to 30-miles-per-hour.

Boasting 1 and 2-seater-cars, Rushmore Mountain can be controlled to reach your desired speed, thanks to an easy-to-pull brake that can either speed up or slow down the car.

If you visit in the fall, be sure to keep your eyes peeled while you race down the mountain for the changing foliage.

Please note: Each car on the Rushmore Mountain Coaster can hold 1 to 2 people, and all drivers must be 16 years or older and at least 54-inches tall.

Admission to the Rush Mountain Adventure Park and Rushmore Mountain Coaster starts at $10 per ride, with a 4-hour wristband (which includes most of the Park's attractions) starting at $27 per person.

To learn more about the Rushmore Mountain Coaster — or to buy your tickets in advance — please visit the Rush Mountain Adventure Park's website.

Rush Mountain Adventure Park is open Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays in September from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays in October from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
