Blizzard Beach Water Park®
Blizzard Beach is a water park located at the Walt Disney World Resort in Bay Lake, Florida. All water areas are heated (at approximately 80 °F or 27 °C), with the exception of the melting snow in the ice cave of Cross Country Creek.
The park opened on April 1, 1995 and was the third Walt Disney World water park. In 2012, the park hosted approximately 1,929,000 guests, ranking it the second-most visited water park in the world, behind its sister park, Typhoon Lagoon.
The majority of the major attractions at the park are hosted atop of Mount Gushmore, an artificial hill with an elevation of 90 feet (27.4 m). Mount Gushmore is split into three colored slopes to aid guests navigating around the park: Green, Red and Purple.

Things to do
Summit Plummet
Height Requirement: 48in (122cm) or taller
Type: Water Ride
Description: Take it to the top for a near-vertical drop on one of the tallest, fastest freefall body slides in the world. The most extreme attraction at Disney’s Blizzard Beach, this must-ride slide rockets you down a sheer 120-foot slope. Hardcore thrill-seekers won’t want to miss this “ski jump” that’s so steep, you can’t see where you’re going—until you're there!
Scale the heights of Mount Gushmore then brace yourself for the thrilling ride to the bottom, where a digital stop clock will display your top speed.
Assume the position; push off when you’re ready and let gravity take hold. Plunge 12 stories at unbelievable speeds, hurtle through a darkened tunnel and then emerge in a massive spray of whitewater as you arrive at the end of the 360-foot-long run.
Teamboat Springs
Height: All heights
Type: Water Ride
Description: Fun is a family affair on one of the world’s longest group whitewater raft rides, where up to 6 can get in on the action. Share an inner-tube raft and lots of laughs on this epic whitewater journey down the mountain.
Hop in, hold on and get ready to be propelled through 1,200 feet of twists and turns on this super-long, super-wide waterslide. You’re at the mercy of gravity and unpredictable whitewater rapids as your raft banks left and right and rotates randomly, putting members of your party in the path of drenching splashes and sprays.
Know before you go: Each raft accommodates 4 to 6 Guests. If you have fewer than 4 in your party, you may be asked to ride with other Guests.
Downhill Double Dipper
Height: 48in (122cm) or taller
Type: Water Ride
Description: Race against your friends on these side-by-side waterslides that bring out your competitive streak. A retractable starting gate is all that stands between you and first place.
Anticipation builds as you and your opponent wait on inner tubes at the top of twin enclosed waterslides. As rapids rush by, you exchange glances. Suddenly, the gates retract—and you’re off!
Disappear into a black hole and plummet 50 feet downhill at exhilarating speeds. Hurtle through the dark then emerge into the bright light of day for the final splashdown.
Like in a downhill ski race, flags mark your course and your time will be displayed on overhead digital stop clocks.
