Take a raft over to Tom Sawyer Island, an out-of-the-way
play area featuring winding caves, barrel bridges,
forts and cannons. The island is a one big
play area that you can explore at your own
pace.
To get to Tom Sawyer Island, board
the raft that leaves every few minutes from
the dock found at the foot of Thunder Mountain.
Once there, you'll find a maze of dark passageways
with lots of caves to explore, an old mine,
a bouncing rope bridge, a barrel bridge, and
an old-fashioned fort called Fort Langhorn.
Inside the fort you'll find air rifles and
cannons and a
secret escape
tunnel. Don't worry about getting lost, maps
are posted here and there, and since the
paths meander all over the place it's a great
way to check out where you are.
If you find the paths and caves to be a little
too strenuous for you (or a little young!),
you can sit and relax in rocking chairs by
the dock, play checkers,
and
enjoy
a nice cool lemonade.
