When it first opened on April
14th, 1979, THE BEAST® debuted
as the longest, tallest, fastest
roller coaster in the world.
Now, more than 20 years later,
this classic wooden coaster
is still tearing through the
terrain of Southern Ohio, covering
more ground than any other wooden
coaster on the planet.
This revolutionary scream machine
roars at speeds of over 65 miles
per hour through dense woods
and rocky ravines, while traveling
through underground tunnels
and a 570° helix!
THE BEAST® rides on 7,400
feet of track, more than any
other woodie, and has been voted
the best wooden roller coaster
in many polls year after year.
This record holder is a definite
"must ride" on any
coaster lover's journey to Paramount's
Kings Island.
