Colorado is Getting a New Water Park Featuring Longest & Darkest Water Slide in the World

May 5, 2023, 4:32 PM

Although details are still a little scarce, it sounds as though the Denver area is about to get a new water park, and the attractions will be top notch.

According to the “Glacier Beach” Facebook page, the park will have 9 innovative and thrilling attractions with each able to seat at least 2 guests, some even up to 6 guests. The park will always allow you to never have to carry that tube around the park, as every ride will have an innovative return system.

The big draw though? A Guinness World Record breaking longest & darkest water slide in the world (pending approval).

The website and Facebook page indicate the park will open in 2024, but there hasn’t been much activity on their sites since February of 2022.
