Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park

Summit Plummet

Snowing in Florida? It's possible only in Walt Disney World! Blizzard Beach is, probably, the strangest water park in the world. It is designed as a ski resort and chair lifts and ski jumps have been put to unusual use here.

Mount Gushmore is the centerpiece of the park. From its top visitors can see the Tower of Terror at MGM-Studios.

Blizzard Beach attractions

At 30 feet above the peak of Mount Gushmore, the snow ski-like water slide known as Summit Plummet. It is the world's tallest and fastest free-fall water slide. It launches guests down a 500-foot long water-slide at speed of around 50 miles per hour.

Snow Stormers: Three flumes (350 feet long) descend from the mountain's peak and follow a switchback course through ski-type slalom gates.

Blizzard Beach attractions

Toboggan Racer is 8-lane, 250-foot water slide, which send guests down from Mount Gushmore racing over thrilling dips.

Downhill Double Dipper is a downhill racer with one rider competing against the other for the fastest time. Speed is up to 25 miles per hour. Time clocks count off each downhill heat and the runs have audio equipment that signal the start of each race.
