Skyride

Here's where you could kick back and soar above the crowds below..   I always liked this attraction because you could see much more of the park than you ever could on foot. It along with the railroads were the 2 forms of transportation inside the park. These were always well maintained and clean, which I can't say about some I've ridden in other parks. But it was a relaxing ride, especially at night to fly about the park and see all the bustling activity below. I'm not sure what ever became of the Skyride, given when Opryland closed, most parks were taking these out for different reasons. My only guess could be they were never reinstalled anywhere which to me is bad given I think the sky ride in any park adds something special.
