King Kahuna was moved from Lake Compounce to Kennywood in 2003 for part of the new Volcano Valley area.

Another look at King Kahuna.

This ride was known as Enterprise from it's opening in 1978 until the 2003 season when it was completely rethemed and renamed as Volcano.

This ride was known as Enterprise from it's opening in 1978 until the 2003 season when
it was completely rethemed and renamed as Volcano. This is the old look.

Volcano in action.

A Kennywood classic. If you grew up in western Pennsylvania, your first driving experience was probably on this ride.

Noah's Ark rides were very popular in the early 20th century. Kennywood's was the last to be built and is the only one left in North America.

The ride has been modernized and differs quite a bit from the original experience.

Pirate is a production model swinging ship ride from Huss.

The ride as night falls.

Some detail from the ride.

The entrance to the ride.

Raging Rapids opened at Kennywood in 1985.

Raging Rapids replaced the park's Dipper roller coaster.

In one of the most unique ride placements anywhere, Swing Around sits above the Garden Stage.
This area was changed for 2006 to bring in a high dive show.

A close up of the ride vehicles.

The Garden Stage was removed for the addition of a high dive show in 2006.
Swing Around is rumored to be returning in the future in a new location.

The entrance to Swing Around was quite picturesque.

The entrance to the old Flying Carpet ride.

Flying Carpet was added to Kennywood's lineup in 1988. It was removed after the 2006 season and replaced by Cosmic Chaos in 2007.

This UFO-themed Disk-O ride replaced the Flying Carpet.

Paratrooper makes for a fun ride nestled in the trees.

Paratrooper is a great family ride.

Paratrooper looks great across the water, spinning in the night.

Wave Swinger has been giving rides at Kennywood since 1984.
It was moved to the Lost Kennywood area of the park in 1995.

Wave Swinger lights up nicely after the sun sets.

This is the oldest flat ride at the park having opened in 1918.

The Whip.

A close look at one of the ride cars. The Bayern Curve was removed before the 2005 season for some rehabilitation and is rumored to return in the future.

Rumors proved to be true as Bayern Curve returned in 2009.

Kennywood's Skycoaster is 180 feet tall and mostly over water.

Three riders being hoisted up. To me, the ascent is the scariest part.

Kennywood's Carousel was built by Dentzel in 1926. It is the park's third carousel.
Music is courtesy of a 1916 Wurlitzer band organ. The ride is listed as a historical landmark.

A super-wide shot of the Merry Go Round.

A look at the horses on the Merry Go Round.

Gold Rusher is a dark ride themed to a haunted mine. It was removed in 2007.

Ghostwood Estate is a unique interactive dark ride that runs without a physical track.

Kangaroo is a really great, unique old ride. Once an amusement park staple, this is the last one in existence. The ride is essentially a flat circle with one twist - the jump! It's the perfect ride for airtime freaks of all kinds.

Kangaroo was once called the Flying Coaster. I'll get some better overall shots of the ride
next time I visit the park. I was just having too much fun watching the riders reactions.

Music Express in action.

Boating on the lagoon has been a park tradition since 1898.

I always have a good time on Kennywood's bumper cars.

Turtle has been at Kennywood since 1927. There are only a few of these rides left in the world,
most not operating. Take the opportunity to experience this one if you ever visit Kennywood.

Pounce Bounce is a newer addition to Kiddieland.

Pounce Bounce offers kid sized freefall thrills to riders of all ages.

A kid sized version of the popular (and very rare) Turtle ride.

Flying elephants.

Oh, it's not just a trolley. It's a crazy trolley!
