Beat the Heat

Adventureland features many ways to cool down on hot summer days! In addition to our three water rides, we have air-conditioned areas and misting fans located throughout the park.

For kiddies to cool off, splash around on the Little Dipper Log Flume. This pint-sized water slide is located on the edge of Kidde Land, between the Carousel and Crocodile Run. Riders must be at least 36 inches tall to enjoy this ride with an adult or 44 inches tall to ride alone. Please keep in mind as with all the rides at Adventureland, an adult is someone 18 years old or older, and all riders, including the adult accompanying a child, must have tickets or a Pay One Price (POP) unlimited riding bracelet to ride. The Little Dipper Log Flume requires either the POP bracelet or 4 single tickets per person.

The Little Dipper also features a Photo Stand that catches all the smiles and screams on camera! The camera snaps a photo as you splash down the lift, and you can purchase souvenir gifts like a photo snow globes and keychains, and prints in all sizes in souvenir frames. You can even purchase digital access to your photos to share the online with family and friends and on social media.

For thrill seeking adults, the Adventure Falls Log Flume is the best way to beat the heat any day. Located in Pirate’s Cove, this enormous log flume feature two drops and is only for riders 48 inches or taller. Guests that are 48 inches must be accompanied by an adult, and even though guests who are 54 inches do not require an adult, there is a two per minimum per boat. Each rider must have a Pay One Price (POP) unlimited riding band or 5 single tickets to experience Adventure Falls. This popular water ride lets passengers float in a curved channel before dropping down a chute. This moderate drop allows the boats to build momentum for the second drop of 11 meters.

The third water ride at Adventureland is Crocodile Run. This unique family water ride is centrally located in the park, between the Music Express and the Little Dipper Log Flume. Riders must be over 44 inches to ride with an adult or 48 inches to ride alone. Crocodile Run riders must have a POP band or 4 single tickets per person. This ride allows 1-2 riders to stand in a crocodile pod as the mechanism spins the ride parallel to the water, splashing riders are they twirl around. Crocodile Run riders can aim their pod towards overhead waterfalls for extra splashes.

Located in Kiddie Land, the Restaurant and Arcade offer a quick way to escape the heat throughout the summer. Our Midway Market Gift Shop lets you cool off while you shop. Conveniently located at the exit of the Turbulence Coaster, you can peruse souvenirs while you relax. Our Sweet Shop also offers air-conditioning to guests all summer long.
