Congo Falls is the park's large flume ride, holding 20 passengers per boat. If you've ever had an entire bucket of water dumped on you, you have an idea of how wet you get on this ride. Tucked away in the far left-bottom corner of the park, the ride also offers views of Face/Off and Top Gun.

Lifthill comments: Congo Falls is a simple up-the-hill and back-down giant flume ride, and as such it is skippable. However, on really warm days this ride can be really refreshing. Just be careful when crossing the exit bridge — if you don't pay attention, the splash from boats coming down the hill can get you a lot wetter than riding the ride itself.
