Raging River

Feel the adrenaline rush as the floor drops out from underneath you and plummet down more than 10 stories on the Paradise Plunge water slide at The Great Escape. This ultimate thrill ride as well as the tallest slide in the area, will have your heart racing long after you exit the ride.

A staple of Hurricane Harbor, this thrilling slide is a guaranteed way to prove to your friends and family you can master the fear of heights combined with extreme speeds. Climb a series of stairs to the top of the highest tower in the park, and brace yourself for the ride of a lifetime! As you step inside the capsule at the top of this record-breaking slide, you’ll stand and wait before the trap door underneath you opens unexpectedly and gravity sends you down the slide at nearly 90 degrees to a splash landing waiting below. A plunging rider is likely to hit speeds of up to 40 mph, and when you stand up at the end of the ride, there's no shaking off that exhilarating feeling of excitement.
