MYSTIC RIVER FALLS AT SILVER DOLLAR CITY

With the tallest drop on a water raft ride in the western hemisphere, Mystic River Falls is now open. The water adventure includes winding, roaring rapids set in an authentic Ozarks mountainous river theme, culminating with a waterfall drop that sends riders down more than four stories of splashing, rafting, family fun. A $23-million investment set in an authentic design of river towns of yesteryear, Mystic River Falls is the focus of the all-new area called Rivertown that includes the new expansive Rivertown Smokehouse, with an array of meats smoked on-site, and a new cinnamon bread bakery, featuring bakers in full view to guests as they create legendary specialties.

They continue to provide updates and quality entertainment, without sacrificing the park’s tradition. Among the new attractions and opportunities are new night Zipline Canopy tours and night rope courses to give visitors fun adventures, even after dark.
