Dragon Falls

Opening with the park in 1987 was Dragon Falls, then known as Dragon River it was widely considered as the best themed Log Flume in the country.

Very simple Log Flume ride, 5 persons per boat travel around the track with one small drop and one large drop, all themed around the Mystic East. Falling into the mouth of a Dragon before climbing over the Buddha’s along with a nicely themed station. A lot of changes on this ride have come over the past few years.

Not quite having the visual impact it used to, the rock faces and theme had been removed. A re-theme back in 2012 was on the cards but delayed until the closure in 2017 where it was announced Land of the Tigers, with this becoming Tiger Rock would open in 2018.
