Amusement park

The amusement park contains 27 rides as of 2018. This includes three roller coasters:

  • Montaña Rusa (English: Russian Mountain) – commonly called "La Broca" or "the drillbit", this attraction was previously called the Zambezi Zinger at its previous location of Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, Missouri. Originally debuting in 1999, this 1,050-metre long coaster is the longest in Colombia. The name comes from the 1700s–1800s in St. Petersburg, Russia, where some of the earliest-known "roller coaster" experiences were called "Russian Mountains". After gaining popularity throughout Europe, French amusement parks would build their own versions, calling them "les montagnes russes".
  • Krater – this Euro-Fighter-style coaster, by Gerstlauer, is based on a similar Gerstlauer ride in Galveston, Texas called Iron Shark. With a full length of 380 metres, this ride features a 30-metre drop, and opened on 24 February 2015 to coincide with the park's 20th anniversary.
  • Yippe (English: jeep) – a German-built roller coaster of 550 metres, opened on 23 March 2018. This coaster's name and design pay homage to the Colombian coffee culture, and the Willys Jeeps that have traditionally been used to transport the coffee.
