Big Bear Mountain Roller Coaster - Opening May 12
Dollywood’s largest ever park expansion, Wildwood Grove, is getting even bigger! Debuting in the spring of 2023, Big Bear Mountain will be the longest coaster at Dollywood, taking guests of all ages on an unforgettable family-friendly expedition in search of the Big Bear. Circling Wildwood Grove for nearly two minutes on 3,990 ft. of track, this gigantic coaster is a first of its kind at Dollywood with onboard audio, including music and announcements from Ned Oakley himself.
It’s almost time to venture into the Smokies for an unforgettable adventure aboard Dollywood's largest attraction. Ned Oakley, Wildwood Grove’s resident wilderness explorer, knows a thing or two about this hidden land and is setting up the Adventure Outpost Base Camp, located just a stone’s throw away from the Grove’s Hidden Hollow. Here, you'll join Ned in his specially-outfitted, four-wheel drive SUVs for the ride of your life in search of the Grove’s most storied and elusive inhabitant, Big Bear.
Big Bear Mountain joins the eleven other attractions of Wildwood Grove to continue the story of this hidden land just beyond the hollow log. As Dollywood’s newest land grows in size, so does its charm, making it an even more wonderful place for families to have fun, relax and be together surrounded by the beauty of the Smoky Mountains. Continue your adventure and discover all the stories of the Grove.

Love how authentic you are about where you’re at with coasters. It’s nice to have someone out there that feels like so many others. I can ride some but not all. My daughter can handle less than me, so seeing you being honest about how you feel makes her feel less alone. This was a great video! Hannah is so sweet and the outro was awesome!

Welcome Renee, we are glad to have you join our adventures! After going through a really hard time with PTSD, I had panic attacks on some very basic rides back home in FL. It's taken some time to build back up confidence being enclosed/trapped on a ride but have gotten much better. If this is the most I can ever do, I have come a long way & very grateful! God is good!

You did great and if that is the best you can do then good for you. I know it takes baby steps. You had a great helper riding with you too.❤ God bless.

We went on Friday as you recommended and we were a bit worried as a few school trips pulled in while we were still standing in line but it still wasn’t overcrowded and we braved big bear and LOVED the smoothness of it. The app said the wait was 65 mins but it only took 28 mins and the time flew by as the lineup was so interactive and entertaining with many things to look at. Big bear was amazing and your video gave my eight year son the courage to try it and he was so grateful he did. Thanks as always for everything Ryan we just love your channel and your family. You bring us so much joy and keep us connected to the Smokies when we can’t be here. ❤ Shan

Ryan i understand. I had a panic attack once on the ferris wheel at Dollywood. I am highly allergic to bees and you know how the bees swarm at Dollywood. Well, we were riding, and they stopped us at the top and just kept us sitting there . The bees were swarming all around me head and i was scared to death. I couldn't get off, and i kept screaming at the operator to get us down but he just let us sitting up there. Finally, he started the ride and he kept us going around and around. I was really panicking. When we did finally get off, they closed the ride down due to the swarming off the bees. I was so thankful that the Lord protected me but i was scared to death. To this day i still will not get on any ride where it stops , goes off the ground or goes slow and i cant get off. Except coasters, because they go fast. That's why i won't ride on a ski lift even though I enjoy them or a ferris wheel anymore. I can understand your fear but kudos to you for conquering it and riding Big Bear Mountain with Hannah.

Is there a bear animatronic in the cave or somewhere? Where is the bear? Ryan if you can do this coaster, I'm sure you can also handle Firechaser Express. It's on a similar level and doesn't go upsidedown or do anything crazy. At the end it goes backwards a little ways back to the station, but it's tame at that point. Check it out. It's also fire engine themed, which is perfect for you.
