About the Jungle Thriller Ark

Dating from 1934, the dazzling Ark features a collection of highly-stylised Art Deco wooden animals, motorbikes and chariots which speed around, rising up on ‘hills’, much like a waltzer. Many arks of the time were later converted to waltzers, as the public appetite grew for faster, more thrilling attractions, but thankfully this one was kept as original as possible.

Who can ride, and what does it cost?

The Ark is suitable for adults and children. It’s a fast ride so isn’t suitable for the very young.
