Toboggan (Lakemont Park)

Toboggan was a steel, portable roller coaster at Lakemont Park in Altoona, Pennsylvania. It was built by Chance Rides as their Toboggan model and had previously toured in Florida with Deggeller Shows before arriving at Lakemont Park. The ride operated from 1991 to 2016, then stood idle until 2018. It was later sold to Huaycha Centro Recreativo in Peru, where it reopened in 2022 and has been running since.

The ride featured an enclosed car that climbed a 45-foot vertical lift inside a hollow steel structure, then spiraled downward around the structure, turned again, passed over two small airtime hills, and returned to the station. A complete ride lasted about 70 seconds and used 450 feet of track.
