Looking for a thrill this summer?
If you’re planning a trip to Wisconsin Dells, you won’t want to miss the newest adventure at Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park: The Rise of Icarus, America’s tallest water slide.
The Rise of Icarus is a 145-foot tower with five exhilarating body slides.
For those seeking a heart-pounding experience, the topmost slide, aptly named The Fall, promises a ride like no other. For a slightly less intense adventure, the middle platform offers four 60-foot slides that are perfect for all ages.
The new attraction opens to the public on Friday, May 24, just in time for the summer season.
Later this summer, Mt. Olympus is set to unveil another addition: an outdoor children’s water play area.
Scheduled to open on July 4, this area will feature 10 slides, various water play elements, and a wading pool, perfect for younger kids to splash around and cool off.
The Mt. Olympus hotel and indoor water park remain open year-round, offering an indoor water park and other amenities.
