“Last Splash for Stanley Falls Flume! After more then 50 years of splashes, smiles, and summer memories, Stanley Falls Flume is taking its final plunge on September 7th, 2025. As one of the original rides from the park’s opening in 1973, this classic has been a fan favourite for generations.

As stated in the above post, Stanley Falls Flume will be replaced by an “exciting” new attraction. Stay tuned for further updates.
FYI: Stanley Falls Flume is right next to the space which was previously home to the Scorpion roller coaster before it closed back in 2024. The currently unoccupied space and closure of the flume ride opens up more room for a larger new attraction. Stay tuned for all the new details on the upcoming attraction.
