Snake River Falls, Water ride at Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio
Snake River Falls is a water ride at Cedar Point amusement park where boats carry passengers up a tall hill before plunging them down a steep slope. The ride creates a splashing experience that draws crowds and provides one of the park's signature wet attractions.
This attraction opened in 1993 and was the tallest, fastest, and steepest water ride in the world at that time. It became a defining feature of Cedar Point for several decades.
The ride's theme connects to the industrial heritage of Ohio, incorporating elements from local wood packing companies into its design and presentation.
Visitors get wet, so bringing a change of clothes or a towel is wise. You can watch the action from the viewing bridge without experiencing the ride yourself.
The final operating day of Snake River Falls will be September 2, 2024, marking the end of a 31-year run at Cedar Point amusement park.
