River King Mine Train feels like it should be in someone's backyard. It feels very homemade. It is not very tall, the track is very small, and it is a slow, sweet, ride that goes through the woods. It has a few mild little drops, and some decent turns within the ride. The one thing that sticks out to me the most is the tunnel at the end. That part was actually very fun. If you are afraid of roller coasters, this one is great to start out with.
