Since we opened in 1979 with the first two water slides in the state of Colorado, we now boast over 46 water adventures, and have been rated as one of America’s top ten water parks by the Travel Channel.

We feature the largest variety of attractions (49) in America, from Wally World for the tots, to Voyage to the Center of the Earth, the ultimate family water adventure. Water World has more family tube rides than any other park in America. Thrill rides are in abundance also, like the Red Line speed slide. Plenty of picnic areas are available, from covered pavilions to beautifully landscaped grass areas. We feature 3 separate Children’s Play Adventures, including the all new Big Top Family Fun Zone. Two new attractions debuted in 2012 including Colorado’s only magnetic water coaster (The Mile High Flyer)!  For 2015, get ready to experience the next generation of water attractions with our newest attraction, Warp Speed!”
