Open year-round (but closed on Tuesdays & Wednesdays), this alpine coaster offers fast turns and mountain views for all. The coaster combines modern engineering with the fresh Montana air to create a ride as timeless and unique as the state in which it resides.  After ascending several hundred feet, riders will begin their descent down the coaster, their speed completely dependent on the rider's use of brakes as they zoom along the track, navigating the many twists & turns the coaster has to offer. The ride itself can take as long as the rider would like as everything with this coaster is completely up to the rider. In addition to the alpine coaster, guests to the Flathead Lake Alpine Coaster can also check out gem mining or play a round of miniature golf. It's a fun afternoon for the whole family!
