Re-live the
excitement and adventure of the American
Frontier.
It's better than any Western. Yeeeehah!
 
(Min Height 40
inches)
Meander through backwoods, swamps and waterfalls
in a search for Brer Rabbit's laughing place.
This thrilling ten minute log-flume ride, (they
didn't have one in Paris), peaks after three
small dips with a watery 50 foot drop that
guarantees you're going to get wet, especially if
you sit in the front.
You travel through scenes from Song of the South
and each time there is a splash something happens
to Brer Rabbit as he is trying to escape from
Brer Fox and Brer Bear, as if he was riding with
you in your log.
Try to keep your eyes open and sing
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah during the big drop, it won't
be easy.
Big Thunder
Mountain Railroad
(Min Height 40
inches)
A rollicking roller coaster ride through gorges
and gulches on a runaway mine train. You speed
through the 179-foot high red-stone mountain and
abandoned mining town. You pass through scenes
with real looking chickens, goats, donkeys and
mining equipment.
Frontierland
Shootin' Arcade
You can pay for the privilege to fire rifles with
light beams at targets as coyote's howl and guns
blaze. No Thank You Fella!
The Diamond
Horseshoe Saloon Revue
A live Western comedy show presented throughout
the day in a Western dance hall saloon.
Sandwiches, snacks and beverages are available
whilst you watch the show.
Country Bear
Jamboree
A country music show that features 20 life-size
bears that sing songs, play instruments and tell
jokes, with Big Al, Melvin the Moose, Buff the
Buffalo and Buck the Deer.
This sounds like a real waste of time and you'd
have to drag me there kicking and screaming to
make me go. It sounds a bit like the effort we
sat through in Camelot. A definite must miss
attraction.
Tom Sawyer
Island
An hour or two after the park opens, up until
dusk, motorized flat wooden rafts will take you
to this island of discovery. Even on crowded days
this is usually a good place for a rest because
most people avoid it.
It has a real windmill to wander through, hills
to climb, secret tunnels and two creaky bridges
to cross.
Just past Aunt Polly's Landing is the signature
barrel bridge where the floating barrels wobble
as you cross the secure bridge. When one-person
bounces on it, so does everyone else.
There are also three caves to explore but they
are very dark and a little bit scary for younger
guests.
Across one of the bridges is a wooden fort, Fort
Langhorn, where you can shoot air guns.
If you get hungry stop at Aunt Polly's Dockside
Inn, a counter-service restaurant, for a snack.
