RIDES & ATTRACTIONS

Human-powered push rides, as well as camel and pony rides, attract eager children and adventurous adults. 

Animal Rides

Camel Trek $ - Children and adults can enjoy a ride on top of a camel.  Fun Fact:  A means of transport for thousands of years, camels can carry about 375 to 600 lbs. (170 to 270 kilograms) on their backs (according to National Geographic.)
War Horse Rides $ - On their days off, jousting horses get their exercise by taking lords and ladies on an easy ride.

Human-powered Attractions

Barrell of Bedlam $ - Don't eat before going on this ride or you may lose your lunch.  The large barrel swings back and forth as it spins around for dizzying fun.
Carosello $ - This carousel of swinging chairs travels in a large circle and is great fun for children ready to ride alone.
SeaDragon $ - Be prepared to rock back and forth as if on large waves as you climb aboard the SeaDragon.
