Log Ride

Flume ride

Description

Log Ride, not like spash mountain. Your flume is very obvious and is moderately fast.Shoty ride with poor scenes with animatronics which jolt here and there. No sounds. The ride has a tendancey to bottom out. I consider it a Disney knock off. But I give them credit because it is okay for not having WDI behind it. -- Last edited by Eric Ey

Another masterful example of fabulous and detailed theming, this is flat-out the best damn classic-style log-ride anywhere! Sure, Splash Mountain is splashier, but it all started right here, folks. And it truly does feel like a journey through an authentic saw-mill and a nocturnal pine forest filled with wild-life. And though there's not a huge amount of animation to the rides' various inhabitants, you're truthfully gliding along too quickly to really notice anyway. Admittedly a bit low-tech compared to the state-of-the-art Disney equivalent, this is still the ultimate ride of its particular kind -- i.e. a good old-fashioned flume. Skip this at your peril! - Paul Clemens

This is a great flume ride, and unlike the inaccurate description above, it is actually first flume ride ever (John Wayne and his son rode it at its opening). All others have copied this one. The animatronics and scenes are quite good, though not Disney of course. Easily one of the best rides in the park and one of the best flume rides anywhere, it shots through the water pretty quickly. - Kyawt Tin

Fun family ride. - Chloe !

Beautifully decorated for the holiday, and obviously well cared for-this is the best ride at Knott's IMO - Jamie Smith
