Water ride in Far West

Grand Canyon Rapids

Easy-going

Round rafts for nine people that run down a replica of the Colorado River rapids, past waterfalls and gunslingers with water pistols.

Set during the gold rush, the raft spins out of control with the current as it dodges hidden waterfalls. Along the way, gunslingers fire water at you from their hideouts.

Every ride is different depending on how the raft turns, so you never know who’ll get wettest.

Who is it for?

For families with children from 1.10 m with an adult and from 1.30 m on their own. The movement is gentle; the water isn’t.
