Silver Dollar City
Closed
Thunderation is a high-speed mine train coaster that winds through the wooded hills of Silver Dollar City, combining classic coaster thrills with Ozark charm. The ride begins with sweeping curves and quick drops that pick up speed as the train dives deeper into the terrain, creating a smooth yet exhilarating experience. Much of the track hugs the natural landscape, so you’re surrounded by trees, rockwork, and open-air views instead of towering steel. It’s a great choice for guests looking for something more intense than a family coaster but less extreme than the park’s biggest thrill rides.
