Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom
Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom opens for the 2008 season on Saturday, May 24th. Ticket Information

Northeast Ohio's Premier Waterpark!
When it comes to wet and wild fun, nothing compares to Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom. Whether you like the fast-paced action of water slides, the excitement of a massive wave pool or prefer to just sit back and relax, Wildwater Kingdom has something for you. Since its debut in 2005, Wildwater Kingdom has grown in size and popularity.

Guests who want to get totally soaked will enjoy Splash Landing, a fun-filled family activity center.
Standing four stories tall, this multi-level play structure features more than 70 watery gadgets and seven slides. Highlighting the liquid fun is a giant tipping bucket that dumps more than 1,000 gallons of water on guests below every two minutes.

Thunder Falls, Ohio’s tallest waterslide complex is one of the focal points of Wildwater Kingdom! With its seven exhilarating slides, Thunder Falls stretches ten stories high and reaches speeds of up to 27 mph.

Adrenaline-junkies love the water slides at Wildwater Kingdom. Liquid Lightning is a 60-foot-tall, 253-foot-long tornado slide where guests sit in four-person rafts that careen down a slide before spiraling back and forth in a giant funnel-shaped structure.
