Joust is a small family roller coaster at Dutch Wonderland in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It opened in 1998 and is the park's gentlest coaster, with low hills and turns aimed at young riders and their families.
The ride is a Chance Rides Big Dipper model. RCDB gives a track height of 16 feet and no inversions, with one train of four cars seating 16 riders. Sources give no speed or length. It is the smallest of the park's three roller coasters, alongside the wooden Kingdom Coaster and the suspended Merlin's Mayhem.
The park lists it as Joust Family Coaster, rated moderate, with a minimum height of 36 inches; riders under 42 inches must ride with an adult.
