Prowler, Wooden roller coaster at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, Missouri
Prowler is a wooden roller coaster at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City that drops sharply into a ravine and winds through dense forest sections. The track takes riders on fast descents and tight turns while trees surround the route, creating an immersive ride experience.
The coaster was built by Great Coasters International and opened to the public in 2009. It was the second wooden roller coaster added to this park, following another wooden track.
Located in the Africa section of the park, this coaster represents the second wooden track addition to Worlds of Fun, following the Timber Wolf.
Riders must meet a minimum height requirement to board this coaster. The ride operates during the warmer months when the amusement park is open.
During a renovation, sections of the track were reinforced with specially treated wood that is significantly harder than the original material used. This upgrade helped the coaster maintain its structure over time.
