Mystic Timbers is a custom-designed ride built for Kings Island by Great Coasters International, which most recently designed the new Thunderhead roller coaster at Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tenn.
The new ride — Kings Island’s 16th roller coaster — will be 3,265 feet long, reach 109 feet in height and weave its way along steep cliffs, down ravines, cross over water and go through an extreme S-turn, among a densely wooded area at speeds of up to 53 mph.
It will feature 16 airtime hills, a mid-course tunnel and interact with parts of the Kings Island & Miami Valley Railroad and White Water Canyon attractions.
