What’s it like to Ride Dollywood’s Daredevil Falls? ( Review )
This boat ride is perfect to go on in a hot day because you will get wet and cool off!. You can find Daredevil Falls in the Craftsman’s Valley area of Dollywood.
Step inside your log quickly because they don’t stop and prepare yourself for the journey ahead!. The log can seat up to 8 people, 2 per row and does not have seat restraint devices. You’ll start out by entering a dark cave and your log will make its way through all kinds of twists and turns as you float down the river.
Feel the cold water as it splashes inside the log and on you, the boat floats smoothly through the winding river, surrounding you in the heart of nature as it takes you through a portion of mountains. You’ll soon be traveling up a 60 foot hill and with only one way to go, Remember to hold on as you quick drop down to the bottom at 50 miles per hour, making an explosion of water around you!.
If you don’t want to ride but still want to cool off and get soaked, you can just stand on the bridge and get splashed as the rafts come down the hill!
