To ensure guest safety, children can participate in attractions when they meet the minimum height requirement established by the attraction’s manufacturer. To determine which slides and attractions are suitable for your child, please visit Dollywood’s Splash Country’s Centralized Measuring station located next to the first bridge upon entering the park (the building shared with Splash Photos).
Your child will be measured by a Splash Country host and given a color-coded wristband to help you identify which attractions he or she is tall enough to enjoy. The wristband’s color corresponds with the information displayed on signs at each attraction. Taking advantage of Splash Country’s Centralized Measuring service early in the day can help you and your family avoid the disappointment and frustration of waiting in line only to discover your little ones aren’t tall enough to ride. Children can ride if they meet both the minimum height requirement and additional rider requirements as established by the ride’s manufacturer to ensure guest safety.
For the safety of our guests, children must be 13 years old or older to enter without an adult. Children 12 years old and younger must be accompanied by a supervising companion 16 years old or older. Unescorted children will not be admitted to Dollywood's Splash Country. If a child is excessively separated from their party, there may be consequences for the supervising companion. If parties are separated, please contact a Dollywood's Splash Country host with a radio or a Dollywood's Splash Country Security Officer.
