Catch a Wave on These Splash Country Rides

Family coming down the red water slide

When you think of a trip to the Smoky Mountains, you may think of cabins, hiking, or even dinner shows. However, in the summertime, the heat can be sweltering, and you will want to cool off at some point. Why not take the family for a fun day of adventure at Dollywood’s Splash Country

 

Splash Country has fun for the whole family!

 

Take a ride down some of the most exciting water slides in the country and enjoy a day cooling off from the sun! There are several different water slides to choose from! When you’re taking a break from the thrill of rides and slides, relax in one of Splash Country’s lazy rivers in an innertube with your friends and family. The river is 1,500 feet in length! Or take a dip in the wave pool! That's right, you can experience beach waves while staying in the Great Smoky Mountains! The wave pool is a popular attraction and more than just your average pool. Enjoy the summer sun in this 25,000 square-foot man-made ocean!

 

Our Gatlinburg cabins are only minutes away from the fun. Be sure to put Dollywood's Splash Country on your itinerary! You will have an unforgettable day with adventure and a break from the hot sun!

Want more information about the water park? Here are just some of the exciting thrills you can find at Dollywood's Splash Country: 

 

RiverRush

RiverRush is Tennessee’s first and only water coaster! Much like a traditional roller coaster, RiverRush features climbs and falls throughout the ride. The highest drop falls from 25 feet high at a 45-degree angle. On RiverRush, riders will experience four drops and multiple turns through tunnels as they ride on the water.

 

Mountain Waves

Mountain Waves is one of the best Splash Country rides! This 25,000-foot wave pool will send your float twisting and turning over the water, just like ocean waves!

 

Bear Mountain Fire Tower

At Bear Mountain Fire Tower, the entire family can jump and climb through the interactive area. There are seven slides, water cannons and a huge bucket that drops 1,000 gallons of water. Kids enjoy spending time in this area because it is like a running around a playground submerged in water.

 

The Cascades

The Cascades is an interactive lagoon-style pool that showcases an 8,000 square foot pool. The area is home to a giant cascading waterfall, slides and water jets. Surrounding the area, visitors will find a large deck space for seating.

 

Downbound Float Trip

Downbound Float Trip is the most relaxing of all of Dolly’s Splash Country rides. The “lazy river” stretches 1,500 feet in length and features a 200-foot waterfall. If you are looking for a calm glide on the water, grab an float and head to the Downbound Float Trip!

 

Little Creek Falls

If your Splash Country adventure includes a group of young children, make sure to rent a canopy near Little Creek Falls! This area includes a children’s pool, slides and activity center. Kids will stay occupied all day at Little Creek Falls!

 

Slick Rock Racer

For a little competition during your visit to Splash Country, hop on the Slick Rock Racer! With four lanes, each side-by-side, riders will challenge one another head first toward the finish! You won’t want to miss this racing ride against friends and family!
