The Milkyway Adventure Park

Looking for a fun day out with the family? Look no further than the Milkyway Adventure Park!

Located near Bideford in North Devon, the Milkyway offers a wide range of activities and attractions for visitors of all ages. Even big kids.

Editorial Note

Besides the sheer variety of things to do here, the key thing to note for parents is that the Milkyway works on both dry and wet days.

We have been here multiple times as the kids have got older. And experienced the staff managing wet weather and opening rides as and when they can.

They do host an outdoor show for the birds of prey, ironically, we’ve never seen it as we have always been too busy inside, on the roller coasters, bumper cars or shooting down the gravity rider. I think we have done “Ziggy’s Blast Quest” at least 50 times each (no joke).

I can confirm large “kids” (adults) will fit in all the soft play areas and horseshoe slide and on the carpet slide mats and in the ninja place and so on…

Attractions

The Milkyway has a variety of attractions to keep everyone entertained, including:

• Rollercoasters
  Thrill-seekers will love the Cosmic Typhoon and the Clone Zone rollercoasters, both of which offer high-speed twists and turns.
