Grizzly River Run

Flume ride
Minimum height to ride: 42 inches

About Grizzly River Run

Billed as the longest, tallest and fastest "tub-style" river raft ride in the world. Look to get plenty wet, but don't expect the characters and songs that Disney delivered on its "Splash Mountain" log flume rides.

Undoutably the best Ive ever been on. Two fantastic drops along with great scenery, its to perfect. IT undoutably gets a 10/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Mateo sams

Great theming. From the walk up to the ride, to the line que and the ride itself, it relly feels like you've gone white water rafting in a Northern California forest. - John Towers

it's a really fun and thrilling ride but your not guanrenteed to get soaked - Michael Brunson

A fun ride where you are guaranteed to get soaked. What seperates this ride from the rest of its kind, are the drops during the ride that adds a fun twist to it. Though Grizzly peak looks impressive from the outside, while on the ride there really isn't much to look at. I wished they could've added something to look at and hear instead of just a bear growling, they could have at least added an animatronic bear. Anyway, this is still a nice ride that forms long lines when temperatures are hot. - Manny Barron

Good rapids ride but, not the best. The Popeye ride at Islands of Adventure is much better. Have to say though, I got soaked on this ride the last time I was there. - Will Chilcote

This ride is just awesome. I've personally never had to wait too long for this ride, which makes it more awesome =) The drops on this are super fun and i always gets soaked, so it's just an overall great ride! - Chloe !

Definitely a fun one for when you want to get wet. The stand-by line is way too long and even the fastpass line is a little long. I would recommend single rider line because within the time that it would take for someone to go through the entire line and go on the ride once, you can go around 4 or 5 times! - Alexz Krysstensin

This was a very fun rapids ride with a great theme and some large drops in it, and will get you drenched. - Patrick Gorham

Great raft ride! I love the fact that it spins on the drop! Best ride to get soaked on in DLR. The theme could use some work, but it's not Splash Mountain. I'd say you get more soaked on here than in Splash, but SM has a better overall theme. - Brandon Mendoza

I used to hate water rides, but this one is FANTASTIC!! I love this attraction, but only in the heat of August. Its not a good idea in winter, even in Southern California. Very fun though!!! =D - Sarah E
