A Wild Ride Through Donkey Kong Country
For the first time in the United States, fans can venture into the lush jungles of Donkey Kong Country. Complete with tropical trees, cascading waterfalls, and the majestic Golden Temple, this area sets the stage for action-packed adventures. The standout attraction here is Mine-Cart Madness, a family-friendly coaster that brings Donkey Kong’s chaotic escapades to life. Guests will join Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong in a high-speed mission to protect the Golden Banana from the mischievous Tiki Tak Tribe. Cutting-edge technology makes the cart appear to leap over “broken” tracks, creating a ride experience that feels as daring as the games themselves.
Beyond the coaster, there’s more to explore. Donkey Kong’s Treehouse offers an interactive meet-and-greet with the big guy himself, marking his U.S. theme park debut! Fans of Rambi the Rhino will enjoy a unique activity centered around the lovable sidekick, while Funky’s Fly ‘n’ Buy is stocked with jungle-inspired souvenirs. Don’t forget to grab a sweet treat at The Bubbly Barrel before heading back into the action!
