Location: Wisconsin Dells， Wisconsin， US

Noah’s Ark offers many water slides. The most notable ride is the Black Anaconda. At more than 400 meters in length， it is the most thrilling water coaster in the USA and sends riders spiralling down at speeds of up to 48 kilometers per hour. Then rushing water pushes riders up the creature’s six humps and wraps them up in its dark coils.

The Time Warp， the “world’s largest bowl ride”， features a 21-meter descent， while the Scorpion’s Tail drops riders down a trap door into an almost inverted loop.

諾亞方舟水上樂園里有許多水上滑梯，而其中以“黑色水蟒”最為著名：它全長超過400米，是美國最為驚心動魄的水上過山車，它可讓游客盤旋而下，速度可達48千米/時；游客會在湍急水流的推動下六次達到其頂峰，并在其黑色的蛇形盤圈“隧道”中不斷盤旋。

“時光隧道”被稱為“世界上最大的圓形過山車”，擁有21米的下降高度，但是諾亞方舟水上樂園的“蝎尾”會通過活板門將你直接送入幾近90的回環滑道。
