High Roller, Wooden roller coaster in Valleyfair, Shakopee, US
High Roller is a wooden roller coaster at Valleyfair theme park with a white wooden structure that spans across the park grounds. The ride features multiple consecutive hills that create a series of quick ascents and descents throughout the course.
The ride opened in 1976 as the park's first attraction when Valleyfair debuted in Minnesota. It has remained a foundational part of the park since its opening day.
Local communities visit this roller coaster during summer months, with many generations of families sharing memories of their first rides on this white-painted track.
Visitors must be at least 48 inches (122 centimeters) tall to ride, and the train accommodates multiple passengers in side-by-side seating. The best time to visit is during summer weeks when weather is stable and lines tend to be more manageable.
The L-shaped track layout uses a distinctive white paint scheme that requires frequent maintenance throughout the seasons. The tightly-wound sequence of consecutive hills creates a ride experience that feels quite different from modern coasters built with new technology.
