Wild Mouse

Wild Mouse is a steel roller coaster in Cave City with individual cars navigating sharp turns and sudden drops on a compact track layout. The design emphasizes agility and lateral movement rather than towering heights.

The ride was built during a revival period for Wild Mouse coasters in the 1990s, when smaller parks sought alternatives to large traditional attractions. This trend allowed amusement parks to offer exciting rides with minimal land use.

The ride shows American traditions in amusement engineering, focusing on side forces and tight turns instead of high speeds. Visitors experience a different kind of thrill based on unexpected twists rather than pure velocity.

Each car holds four passengers and the ride operates continuously during regular park hours in the main season. Keep in mind that lateral movements are intense, so hold on firmly throughout the ride.

The track includes multiple unbanked turns where cars appear to extend beyond the rails, enhancing the sensation of nearly sliding off. This creates a visual illusion of danger while remaining completely safe.
