The concept

According to the park's story, the oldest residents of Penitence still remember the day the carousel was set up in the town centre. It was to celebrate the first anniversary of American independence.

The Experience

Brave cowboys and cowgirls ride wild horses, wealthy townsfolk travel in stately carriages and the boldest tame a buffalo. The carousel turns gently to music. A classic that never goes out of fashion.

Together with your child

The Carousel is made for children and adults to enjoy together. Little ones ride with an adult.

Look at the woodcarving

Some of the figures are hand-carved. Take a moment to look at the details.

Choose your mount

Horse, carriage or buffalo: each figure belongs to a different kind of Penitence resident.

A touch of nostalgia

The Carousel is a calm break between the thrilling rides of Far West. After your ride, you can walk straight on to Silver River Flume or the shops of Penitence.
