Hoot 'N' Holler is a children's roller coaster in the Rowdy's Ridge area of Six Flags Darien Lake in Darien Center, New York. It is a small Zierer Tivoli coaster with an oval track and a booster-wheel lift, and RCDB lists it as operating at the park since 1981, the year the amusement park opened.
History
The ride has carried several names and has moved around the park. It opened as Ladybug, became Nessie the Dreamy Dragon when it moved to the Adventure Land for Kids area in 1988, and was renamed Brain Teaser in 1997, when it moved again as one of the three Tiny Trio rides. It has been Hoot N Holler since 2012, when the Rowdy's Ridge children's area opened.
According to RCDB, the track is about 198 feet long, about 11 feet high, and reaches about 16 mph. Its single train of five cars carries 10 riders. The park lists a minimum height of 36 inches and a maximum of 54 inches.
