I have always been someone who enjoys going to a adventure park.  In Illinois we have Six Flags Great America.  There is Six Flags St Louis in Missouri and they have some amazing rides there too.  If you are a person who likes an adrenaline rush, feel the need for speed, and want to get your blood pumping, I think I have the place for you.  It is called Branson Mountain Adventure Park and let share more about it.

In the Ozark Mountains is where you will find Branson Mountain Adventure Park, and it is the home of the Runaway Mountain Coaster.  This roller coaster is very unique.  For starters, I have never heard of a coaster that YOU can control the speed? This one you can, and you get a private cart with its own breaking system.

This ride will take you through the mountains on various levels. And for the record it is open all year! Yes, even during times where snow is on the ground.

If any of you have been to the Ozark Mountains, you know how scenic they can be.  2900 feet of track to see throughout the ride.  No doubt your views will be glorious.

Now if this adventure ride seems exciting, and the thought of riding a zipline also excites you, then you may want to plan a trip.  Still on the fence? Perhaps this YouTube clip will convince you!
