Woodland Run is a wooden roller coaster at the Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville, Kentucky. The ride opened as Thunder Run in August 1990 and operated until October 2009, when the park was abandoned by its then-operators, Six Flags. After being closed since 2009, the roller coaster reopened with Kentucky Kingdom under new operators in May 2014.

The ride was manufactured by Dinn Corporation and designed by Curtis D. Summers and John Fetterman. With 2,850 feet (870 m) of track, Woodland Run stands 90 feet (27 m) tall and features a top speed of 53 miles per hour (85 km/h).
