Park Review- Canada's Wonderland

Park Review- Canada's Wonderland

Last season, Canada's Wonderland shocked and surprised us, we had no idea of the hidden treasure sitting north of Toronto. Now that we knew, the park made it to the top of our "Must Visit Again" list.

Needless to say, the second time around just confirmed the fact that this park is the hidden jewel of the Cedar Fair company.

Day: Monday
Date: May 26th, 2014
Weather: Sunny and Warm
Overall Rating: Excellent
Coaster Baiting: Excellent
Overall Opinion: Shut Up and Visit.
Website: Canada's Wonderland
Review Team: Myself, +Kitsune Hazard and +Alexandra F

 **NOTE: We where invited by Canada's Wonderland to review the park as well as their newest attraction, Wonder Mountain's Guardian. This has in no way effected our review or opinion.**

Honestly, Canada's Wonderland is simply a beautiful amusement park with some heavy themed elements. While I hesitate to call it a 'theme park' it's very close since so many of there rides follow the areas which they've been planned in. This year we arrived on a lovely spring morning, much warmer then our previous years visit, as this seemed to be the first fully wonderful weather weekend of the Spring.

Canada'a Wonderland- General Park Update

Canada's Wonderland- A General Park Update.

 Well we all know that Wonder Mountain's Guardian is under construction but what else is going on around the park?

 According to Screamscape, quite a bit of actively is going on around the park.

 -The Wild Boar's "pink" train is getting repainted back to it's original "blue" color.

 -Thunder Run is also being painted back to a shade of "blue".

-Swing of the Century is getting a big upgrade with 2,800 LED lights, a big job!

-All of the coaster trains for Backlot Stunt Coaster are being repainted, they will remain the original colors but will remain their original colors of white, red and blue.

Overall, this is quite a bit of activity on top new ride construction, regular maintenance and getting the park ready for their opening day! It's always great to see parks doing basic care and Canada's Wonderland is one park that is excellent at this. It shows when you walk in the gate!

 Despite the winter weather and growing snow totals, Canada's Wonderland hasn't slowed down construction of their newest attraction- Wonder Mountain's Guardian.

 The attraction will be inside Wonder Mountain, an interactive 3D shooter attraction, the new ride will open in 2014. While progress may not look like much to many people, the park has come a long way in getting this new ride up and running for 2014!

  One of the best parts of Wonder Mountain's Guardian, the attraction can change "modes" quickly. Allowing for new shows all the time, perhaps for Halloween or just something new each season. Allowing the park to always have a fresh, new show to keep riders interested!
