Iron Dragon

Standing tall underneath the first hill of the mighty Mantis, Iron Dragon is another great ride for the intermediate roller coaster enthusiast. Guests aboard Iron Dragon are taken high above the treetops, around swooping turns and over a misty lagoon that leaves them looking for the Lake Erie monster.

In 20 years, Iron Dragon has given nearly 36 million rides, with 1,504,490 riding in 2006. Guests must be at least 46 inches tall to ride.
