While you’re in Toronto – why not take a day to visit Canada’s Premiere Themed Amusement Park! Whether you have kids young or old, or even if you dont have any – Canada’s Wonderland is guarenteed to be a day you wont forget!

Canada’s Wonderland is a 330-acre (1.3 km2) theme park in Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, 30 kilometres north of downtown Toronto. The park is open seasonally from May to October and contains more than 200 attractions. It opened in 1981 and was Canada’s first major theme park.

Canads’s Wonderland has 12 roller coasters – the latest featured coaster being the Behamoth; Canada’s fastest, and tallest rollercoaster – At over 5,300 feet (1,616m) in length, Behemoth sets the stage for thrills with a climb to a height of 230 feet (70.1m), followed by an adrenaline pumping 75 degree drop with speeds reaching 125 kilometers per hour in 3.9 seconds. The coaster will then take riders through the ultimate coaster experience with high speed twists and turns, including double banked flat loops (horizontal loops) and eight extreme drops. Intensifying the action packed adventure, the ride will feature prototype open-air seating that will allow all riders to experience an unobstructed view of all the thrills and excitement on one of North America’s best coasters.

But the park isnt all about big rollercoasters! There are a huge selection of other rides such as the Antique Carrousel, Ghoster Coaster, Klockwerks, the flying chairs – Swings of the Century, Timberwolf Falls and a whole load more!
