The Beast, Wooden roller coaster in Mason, Ohio
The Beast extends across 7,359 feet of track through dense forest, featuring two lift hills and multiple tunnels through the woodland terrain.
Opening in 1979 at Kings Island, The Beast set records as the longest wooden roller coaster, maintaining this distinction for over four decades.
The Beast influenced the development of modern wooden roller coasters, establishing standards for track length and speed in amusement park design.
Riders must reach a minimum height of 48 inches to experience the four-minute journey, with the station located in the Rivertown section.
The track includes a 141-foot tunnel at the base of the first drop, followed by a 125-foot descent at a 45-degree angle.
