Shivering Timbers

The wooden structure extends 5,383 feet in length, featuring two substantial camelback hills and multiple drops across its expansive out-and-back layout.

Built by Custom Coasters International for 4.5 million dollars, this wooden attraction opened in May 1998 as part of Michigan Adventure's 32nd operational year.

The name reflects Michigan's strong connection to the lumber industry, with the wooden track design paying tribute to traditional American amusement engineering.

Riders must reach a minimum height of 48 inches to experience the coaster, which operates two trains with six cars each, accommodating 1200 guests hourly.

At its peak speed of 57 miles per hour following the 122-foot descent, the coaster stands as the fastest and tallest wooden track in Michigan.
