Gold Rusher opened along with Magic Mountain in 1971, becoming the park's first roller coaster.  This Arrow Dynamics designed steel mine train takes riders on a scenic adventure through lush landscape and over several hills, dips, and turns.

The ride stands 70-feet in the air and reaches a maximum speed of 35 MPH.  The ride's layout spans 2,590-feet and includes two lift-hills.

Not only is Gold Rusher a significant part of the park's history, but it is a very fun ride that the whole family can enjoy.
