In this photo update, we return to Adventureland Resort in Des Moines, IA. Since our last visit, the park has spent the last few years revitalizing its ride lineup. This is continuing this year with the opening of Flying Viking and Draken Falls, a Zamperla Junior Coaster and Super Flume integrated rides attraction.

Also the park had been sold to Palace Entertainment and was under its first season under the new ownership this year which brought about upgrades to modernize the park's infrastructure.

Since our last visit, two new coasters had opened. The Phoenix is a new Maurer-Sohne spinning coaster. Dragon Slayer is an S&S 4-D Free Spin. Also one coaster was removed (the classic Hopkins Rides coaster Dragon).

There's lots to see at Adventureland and the future is bright, so follow us as we take you around the park.
