Custom Coasters International

Pegasus is a wooden family roller coaster at Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. Custom Coasters International built it, and it opened in 1996 as the park's second roller coaster, a year after Cyclops, when the business was still called Big Chief Karts and Coasters. Its train was built by Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters.

A chain lift takes the train to a height of 60 feet, and the first drop is 45 feet. The park gives the track length as about 1,600 feet, and the ride has no inversions. A single train of four cars carries 16 riders. Pegasus shares the outdoor theme park with the park's larger wooden coasters, Cyclops, Zeus and Hades 360.
