Travel To The Paramounts Carowinds Theme Park In North Carolina

Spending part of your North Carolina vacations at Carowinds will not only have you relaxed you did but your family will know you are the best thing ever!

If you have children under five years of age don’t worry there is nothing for them to do, there is the Amusement center where the kids can enjoy a train ride with Dora the Explorer’s Azul or fly, dive and twirl with Danny-Phantom. Hugs are the part of the experience for the little children with the full-size Nickelodeon stars throughout the theme park.

With kids from six – twelve you can keep them excited with either seeing some of the live events that occur throughout the theme park all day or visit Nickelodeon-Central where there are more than twenty attractions for their age group. They can even ride Scooby Doo’s Haunted-Mansion! They will love to free fall into twenty acres of thrills in the amusement park. There are many rides that they will love – including one that takes you three hundred and twenty feet above the park! There is the “Wild mouse” roller coaster that will show your kids a real thrill or the Scream-Weaver – Gondolas which twirl in a horizontal angle and shoots into the vertical angle, skyrocketing riders into upside-down orbit. Including all these and many more choices for the children they will be entertained from the moment you enter in until you ultimately get them to depart at the close of the day!

For teenagers between twelve – 18 the thrill never ends. They will ride the Nighthawk, the flying rollar-coaster and tallest one in the park or the Rip Roarin’ Rapids with the white water raging rafting you can experience in a six person craft (and get really, really soaked). Naturally there are the bumper-cars that are a priority of many children. Now envision them on the Thunder-Road which is a forward and backward roller coaster. You may need to plunge down a forty-five foot waterfall to the pool of water below (another great way to cool off on a scorching day.) There are so many attractions and rides for them that they may demand you to return with them the next day!

As grandparents you may believe that you are supposed to sit back and watch the kids have fun…BZZZZZ! Run out there with them, talk them into riding on the Xtreme-SkyFlyer with you and experience the excitement of skydiving as everyone is lifted 153 feet in the sky and then yank the ripcord for a 50 foot free fall at sixty mph. (you need to be extraordinarily brave for this one and it does have an additional cost.)

If that isn’t enough for you then visit the Drop-Zone where you will discover a 56 mph 100 ft. free fall. Probably don’t want to eat just before you do this, could get messy!

The Hurler is the wooden rollar-coaster that achieves fifty mph with stomach-twisting dips and turns.

This is only the beginning of the fun that waits for you and your family in Piedmont on your North Carolina Piedmont tourism!

There is a twenty-five acre campground at Carowinds with approximately two-hundred campsites, and fifeteen cabins for rent for those that want to stay right there. For reservations call 704-587-9116 or 1-800-888-4386 ext. 2116
