What to know for your visit
Adventureland pairs its coasters with the Adventure Bay water park near Des Moines, from The Monster to the Outlaw wooden coaster.
Use the current ride names. Monster is the green steel coaster; Dragon Slayer is the free spinning coaster across the lake. The older Dragon looping coaster is not a current ride.
Check seasonal ride availability. Outlaw is beside the water park end of the grounds. The operator lists Tornado as closing September 7 for the season, so do not build a fall route around that ride.
Adventure Bay follows its own season. Water park entry is included when it is operating. The operator lists its season as ending on Labor Day; check the current calendar before packing for the slides.
Adventureland Iowa area navigator
Use Main Street at the entrance as your starting point, then group nearby rides before walking to Outlaw and Adventure Bay at the far end. These photos identify four useful landmarks; use the full map to connect them.
Adventure Bay and Outlaw
The photo shows Outlaw, near the Adventure Bay end of the park. Plan this as one outward walk; the water park has its own operating dates and may be closed while the amusement park is open.

Monster and Dragon Slayer
The green track in the photo belongs to Monster. Find Dragon Slayer separately across the lake; Dragon’s Nest is a children’s ride nearby, so the three names should not be confused.

Flying Viking and Draken Falls
The yellow Flying Viking family coaster intertwines with Draken Falls, a log flume. Both sit by the indoor Underground ride. Treat this as one stop before continuing toward Monster or returning to Main Street.

Where to find guest services
The services most visitors hunt for on a map, and where each one sits inside Adventureland, per the official legend.
At opening, where to start
Choose your first destination around what your group wants to ride and what is operating. This route is a planning option; the app and staff should guide any changes on the day.
The Monster first
If Monster is the priority, find its green track from the central midway and confirm it is operating before joining the queue.
The wooden coasters next
Continue toward Outlaw for a wooden coaster stop. Tornado has a separate seasonal closing notice on the operator ride page, so check availability before walking to its entrance.
Adventure Bay in the heat
When Adventure Bay is operating, group its slides and pools into one block and allow time to change. On fall dates after its season ends, use that time for open rides or scheduled entertainment.
How to use this map
Start with Main Street, then locate the yellow Flying Viking track and green Monster track. Outlaw and Adventure Bay occupy the farther end of the park. Use the lake and train route to understand the longer walks, and agree on a meeting point near the Carousel before your group splits up.
Save the operator's current PDF before arrival and zoom in for individual ride names and service symbols. It is a large landscape sheet, so a whole-map print on ordinary paper may make labels too small. Use the park app for current ride availability and showtimes.
