Tourist-town FEC dump with one alpine on the Baraboo side. Mt. Olympus
is a half with five coasters — treat it as overflow, not
the reason you opened this page. No hotel math. Wristbands are how
the Dells upsells a $3.50 credit.

StartBaraboo, 11am
LodgingNone — day loop
OverflowMt. Olympus half
Count alpines and indoor spinners, or skip this page.
The mountain coaster is the only outdoor sled. Knuckleheads and Tom
Foolery's are FEC credits inside trampoline / resort buildings. If you
came for Hades 360, Olympus is the day — buy that ticket and ignore
this loop.
The mapped order
Start south in Baraboo so you are rolling when the alpine posts 11am.
Then north into the Dells for Knuckleheads on Gasser Road and Tom
Foolery's at Kalahari. Olympus sits on the Parkway as optional
afternoon overflow — not a fourth hour-stop.
Schematic, not turn-by-turn. Stops 1–3 are the core; dashed
Olympus is a half day if you still want wood.
How the clock actually works
Budget 30–45 minutes at the mountain coaster
(waiver, one lap, photo upsell). Knuckleheads and Tom Foolery's are
15–25 minutes if you buy the single and walk past
bowling. Three stops plus Dells Parkway traffic is a
2–4 hour morning. Olympus on top is another 4–6
hours in season — that is a different recipe.
Ticket ballpark for one adult, one ride each, no lodging:
$19.25 + $3.50 + $6 ≈ $29 before you get cute with
wristbands. All-day Need-4-Speed ($39.99) and Tom Foolery's
general admission ($44.99) are how you turn a $30 loop into $100.
Stop by stop
1. Wisconsin Dells Mountain Coaster
111 County Rd A S, Baraboo · $19.25 adult tax-in · typically 11am
Same dual-track alpine energy as The Branson Coaster. Adult single
lap is $19.25 tax-in; child $14.25. Three-lap
adult $43 — only if you came to lap, which this clock does not.
Posted Sun–Thu 11am–6pm, Fri–Sat 11am–10pm.
Buy the single lap. Gem bags, $14 ride photos, and
Adventure Bundles are the trap. Military/local 10% is singles only.
Must be 56" to drive. Call 608-404-3770 if the sky looks
stupid. Then get back north toward the Dells.
2. Knuckleheads — indoor Roller Coaster
150 N Gasser Rd · ~$3.50 single · skip the jump park
Atlas tags this stop for one family coaster inside an
80,000 sq ft trampoline / bowling box. Official ride page:
$3.50 single, 36" with chaperone, 48"
solo. Need-4-Speed and Airheads wristbands are for people who
wanted go-karts.
Park, buy one coaster ticket, leave. Summer ride hours often
10am–10pm; winter collapses. Do not add grip socks. 608-254-7332.
3. Tom Foolery's Adventure Park — Sky Rangers
1305 Kalahari Dr · $6 à la carte · do not buy $44.99 GA
Inside Kalahari. RCDB credit is Sky Rangers
($6/person on the individual menu). Non-resort all-day admission is
$44.99 (42"+) — that is a resort afternoon,
not a credit run.
Ask for the single. If they will not sell Sky Rangers without GA,
skip it or eat the gate only if you already had a Kalahari day
planned. Meteorace and G-Force One are $6 flats, not the RCDB row.
Closed-toe shoes for some attractions; Sky Rangers is the errand.
Five coasters: Hades 360, Zeus, Cyclops, Pegasus, Little Titans.
One price for water + theme, $40 online plus tax
($45 gate), valid through the year but outdoor coasters are
roughly mid-May through mid-September. Stay-and-play packages
muddy the math if you already have a room.
This is the afternoon if the hour-stops were breakfast. It is not
a 20-minute grab. Extreme rides may be extra. Do not pretend you
can stack Olympus after a late Baraboo open on a weekday 6pm alpine
close.
What not to add
Wilderness waterpark indoor credits, Noah's Ark, and Bay Beach
(Green Bay) are other trips. Three-lap alpine passes and
Knuckleheads all-inclusives ($50 summer package) are how a $30
morning becomes a waterpark day without Olympus.
What this day refuses to be
Not an Olympus wood guide, and not “every credit in the Dells.”
Not lodging, waterparks, or go-karts — tickets and clock only.
Not live wait times. Indoor FECs stack when a coach unloads.
Not turn-by-turn. Use the planner for a hub pin and drive order if
you want a map that moves.
Prefills Wisconsin Dells as the hub. Love the three hour-stops you
still need. Mark Mt. Olympus Neutral or Avoid unless you are adding
the overflow half.
