The story of Mystery Mine
Dollywood announced Mystery Mine as a new steel coaster for the 2007 season. The project brought a mine setting and darkened track into the Timber Canyon landscape, giving the park a new kind of steel attraction among its mountain rides. coaster101.com· dollywood.com
Gerstlauer built the ride as a custom Euro-Fighter, with design work by Forrec. It was the first American installation of the Euro-Fighter system, a notable arrival for the German manufacturer in the United States. attractionsmanagement.com· en.wikipedia.org
When Mystery Mine opened in 2007, its enclosed mine sequence, steep descent and inversions gave Dollywood a steel attraction unlike its timber coasters. The ride remains in operation in Timber Canyon, standing 26 metres high and reaching 70 kilometres per hour. dollywood.com· en.wikipedia.org
