DUNK XTREME

LOVE BUGS

EAGLE WINGS

UNLUCKY DUCK

SKYLINE COASTER

SUPER SKEE BALL

This exciting attraction is a tank full of fun for the whole family. Take aim at the dunking target and watch as your victim falls into the largest water tank in the country. The tank, made from 80% recycled plastic, conserves energy by eliminating the use of commercial power. Windmill pumps extract water for the tank, and levers are used to maintain and release seat suspension. One strike is all it takes to experience an extreme dunk.

Enjoy the thrill of this classic ride as your car glides along a hardwood floor. An air cushion, instead of electrical energy, is used to move the cars along during each session. The cars, donated by Volkswagen Automotives, are made from recycled rubber, steel, and plastics.

Experience a birds-eye view of Eco Park from 250 feet. Eagle Wings is the tallest ride in the park. Thrill seekers will enjoy a 235-foot climb and then descend in full swing at 45 mph. Magnets create kinetic energy used to crank riders to the top, making this the only non-electric powered swing ride in the country.

Skill and accuracy are awarded at this attraction. Players are challenged to hit targets worn by rubber ducks as they zigzag through a forest maze. Each gun is made from recycled plastic and their pellets are made from recycled foam. Experience the challenge of hitting three targets to win the grand prize.

Let gravity take you to new heights on Skyline Coaster! You’ll reach up to 200 feet in the sky and get a short glimpse of the whole park until the first drop takes you soaring through the air at 80 miles per hour. Skyline Coaster is a classic wooden roller coaster with five epic hills and many twists and turns that will leave you wanting to get right back in line!

Super Skee Ball is not your ordinary amusement park arcade game. Every quarter spent is donated directly to the Amazon Rainforest restoration efforts in South America. All the money from Super Skee Ball has been used for the rehabilitation of previously forested land and has helped fund the efforts to rescue thousands of endangered species.

Before you leave, be sure to stop by the Eco Cafe for a variety of organic treats. Our 2013 summer specialty will be the Sunrise Veggie Crepe. It is a delicious blend of green beans, zucchini, corn, and ricotta cheese, topped with chive cream sauce. Just next door is Eco Store, filled with stylish reusable bags, soy candles, solar chargers, plantable seed paper, and more. At the exit, one of our hosts will give you a souvenir balloon as a reminder to keep our earth clean. Each balloon is made of biodegradable latex that contributes to the preservation of tropical rainforests.

Take a ride around the park on our Eco Train designed by Eurail. Riders of all ages get the grand tour of Eco Park by our train conductor. Learn all about the rides and the technology that makes them the most eco-friendly in the world. During the day, the train is powered by solar panels and at night, our Li-Ion batteries kick in. Eco Train produces three times less CO2 emission than a car and four times less than a plane. Choo! Choo!

Anyone can be a master of the claw! A quarter and a steady hand is all it takes. Each machine is stocked with Green Toys®, trucks, jump ropes, jewelry, and tote bags. You may even win the grand prize, a $1,000 gift card to greenecostore.com. Not only can you win a great prize, but every quarter spent is donated to The Conservation Fund.

Enjoy an exciting spin on our classic merry-go-round. There are dozens of horses to choose from, and each one represents a great national forest. The horses are made of forest stewardship council certified wood and were hand painted with Auro USA® paint. At night, the ride is brought to life by hundreds of brightly colored fluorescent lights, powered by the rotating power of the ride itself. Ride and be merry!

Eco Park is the first amusement park in the world to be completely wind powered by its very own Ferris wheel. Windy Wheel sits in the center of Eco Park and provides an environmentally friendly option for energy to all of the other rides in the park. It acts just the way a real windmill would and has saved the park millions of dollars in annual energy costs. Windy Wheel is the perfect ride for parents who need a place to relax while their children ride Skyline Coaster over and over again!

Rocket to the Moon is a 3-minute ride intended for children between the ages of 4 and 10. It conserves energy by being the first ever ride to be powered by pressurized water. Much like Super Skee Ball, every quarter spent on the ride is donated to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation in Maryland, to support research on our local waterways.
