“We will have a lot of fun activities to do here at Raging Rivers. We got to this idea from the get-go when the owner bought the park; they wanted to make the park bigger and better,” said Jeremy Hayes, park manager.

In addition to these new land-based attractions, Raging Rivers will add four new water slides, which are expected to be operational by the end of the season.

Located near the Mississippi River, Raging Rivers WaterPark is a popular summer destination known for its water attractions. The park currently features slides such as the Mississippi Monster, Runaway Rafts, Cascade Body Flume, Swirl Pools, and Shark Attack.

Visitors seeking a more relaxed experience can enjoy the 700-foot Endless River, while the 18,000-square-foot Breaker Beach Wave Pool offers larger waves for those looking for excitement.

Families with young children have access to Itty Bitty Surf City, which includes smaller slides, splash pools, rain trees, and the TreeHouse Harbor play area with crawl tunnels, rope pulls, and a dumping water bucket.

The expansion aims to broaden the range of activities available, providing guests with more options beyond traditional waterpark attractions.
