Wicksteed Park

Try out our snake-like slide. Children under 1m must be accompanied by a responsible person over 14 years old on the same mat. The responsible person must sit behind the child.

This attraction has no minimum height restriction but all riders must be able to walk unaided to be able to take a turn.

If you’re feeling daring try out our 8m Dropslide. Children must be 8 years plus. You must wear socks at all times and skirts/shorts above the knee are not permitted as you must cover the backs of your thighs!

Choose your steed! Our beautiful carousel can take you as far as your imagination. Children under 1m will need a grown-up buddy, and may need to ride in a carriage.

If you’re 14 or under and at least 1m tall then grab your paddle and get going! Try out our canoes and turbo paddlers. There is a weight restriction on the Turbo Paddlers of 30kg.

Please note: The queue for this ride will close 15 minutes before the closing time on the day.

A roller-coaster for big ones and little ones alike. If you’re between 0.9m and 1m tall, you’ll need to bring a friend aged at least 14 along for the ride.

Can you sink a hole in one? Really? We’ve heard that before. Come along and show us! If you’re under 0.9m then you play for free but you must be accompanied.

It’s time to get dizzy, boys and girls! If you’re under 1m, you need a grown up to accompany you.

Step up, get in, and start your engines! (Just make sure drivers are at least 1.4m tall and passengers are over 1m.)

Swings, roundabouts and slides: what more could you want? Mums and Dads, you can sit back and have a jolly good natter as the kids run around in one of the largest free playgrounds in Europe.

The sweetest ride at Wicksteed! Join our bear for some scrummy honey, and a whole load of twists and turns. Fourteen year-olds and over: we’re trusting you with the young ones (less than 1m).

Who says little kids can’t go on roller-coasters? We say, climb aboard. If you’re 0.9-1m, grab a grown-up (less than 1m).

Bring up to three friends (including an over 18 for each boat) and explore our lovely lake. You could even say “Hi” to a swan or two. It’s just four tickets for every half an hour. If rowing boats aren’t your cup of tea then how about a pedalo? For the more adventurous we also have canoes. Please note: The queue for this ride will close 1 hour before the closing time on the day.

Are you a sharp shot? Weave around the neon maze, hiding from your foes. Then take aim – and let rip!

Perfect mini replicas of the cars that brought visitors to the park all those years ago. Children under 1.1m must be accompanied by a grown-up friend along!

Soar high above the Arena at a startling 45 degrees. If you’re 0.9 to 1.2 metres tall, you’ll need to ask a bigger friend if they’re brave enough to join you.

Those delighted screams you hear in the distance? They’re probably coming from the Pinfari. It’s one of our most popular attractions for a reason.

Set sail for the high seas, pirates and prepare for rough seas! (If you’re under 1.1m tall, you’ll need a bigger pirate to sail with you.)

On a balmy summer’s day, nothing beats the plunge down Rocky River Falls into the chilly drink below. If you’re under 1.2 metres, please ask a big buddy to come with you.

I say, these cars are going in circles! And I’m having a ball!

Who needs the beach when you have sand and water play at Wicksteed Park!

Strap yourself in and prepare to be swung through the air at speeds of up to 30mph. The 30ft high ride undulates up and down as you are tilted 45 degrees to give you and your family an adrenaline rush to remember.

Sway Rider artwork has been created especially for the park and has been hand-decorated with paintings of some of the park’s iconic attractions.

Welcome to Sycamore Circle, a blend of nature and fun. Explore the wooden climbing frame, crawl through the overground tunnels and keep super-still on our balancing blocks. For those too small for the equipment there’s still our lovely ponies and alpacas to look at.

Climb, scramble and crawl along a 90-metre course which will take you up to eight metres off the ground.

Welcome to the oldest water chute in the world! I, Charles Wicksteed, designed it myself. It was installed in 1926, and let me tell you, it’s every bit as fun today as it was then. If you’re under 1m, bring an adult who doesn’t mind getting wet.

We’ve built a long, winding track around the Arena so you can show off your driving skills. Drivers need to be 1.6m tall, unless over 18 years; passengers, 1m.

Our railway track runs around a large section of the park, taking in gorgeous countryside and beautiful wildlife habitats. No wonder it’s Britain’s most popular narrow gauge railway!

Children under 1m must be accompanied by a responsible person over 14 yrs of age.

Walk through our Woolloomooloo Aviary and enjoy the sounds and sights of beautiful birds.
