Rollo Coaster is a wooden roller coaster located at Idlewild & SoakZone in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, USA. It was Idlewild's first and only roller coaster for decades until the larger Wild Mouse coaster opened in 1993.

The coaster closed in 2016 after an accident, but reopened for the 2018 season.[1] It was the inspiration for Boulder Dash, a similar but much larger coaster at Lake Compounce.
