What is a Go Card?
 

SEASONAL. Step back into the Wild West at Ghost Town in the Sky. Surrounded with breathtaking views in a beautiful mountain setting, Ghost Town is a timeless, family-fun theme park located in the heart of Western North Carolina in Maggie Valley.

Start your day at Ghost Town by riding the incline railway or chairlift that takes you 3500 feet up the side of a mountain. This is where the fun begins!

Enjoy rides from mild to wild. Visit Heritage Town Square packed with history, arts and crafts. Ride the world’s most unusual roller coaster as you swing out on the side of the mile-high mountain. Kick back at the Silver Dollar Saloon to enjoy live music and dancing. But watch out for bank robbers! You’ll be on the edge of the action when you least expect it! Ghost Town is convenient to Asheville, Cherokee, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
