If winter had you feeling a little squirrelly, what with cabin fever and all, then embrace your spring-y side and think about heading to the Dells, "The Waterpark Capital of the World!®", for a refreshing getaway.

Surf’s Up At Wisconsin Dells Water Parks
It's "cowabunga" time in the Dells. That expression is a throwback to '60s surfer culture and translates loosely to "exhilaration when riding the waves." It's also a perfect fit for all our Wisconsin Dells water parks.

Being christened "The Waterpark Capital of the World!®" was no small accomplishment. In fact, the math is quite astounding. More than 20 indoor and outdoor water parks dot the landscape in this community that pioneered the craze including the state's largest indoor water park at the Kalahari Waterpark Resort Convention Center and the world's largest outdoor water park at Noah's Ark Waterpark and the world's largest indoor/outdoor combination water park at the Wilderness Hotel & Golf Resort. Did you know the nation's first indoor water park was actually invented in the Dells? It's true and that invention completely transformed the community.

Families are known to make selections based on their favorite waterslides, as well as their favorite accommodations. This year, the nice packages and deals being offered by the water park resorts and other lodging properties will surely play into the decision too.

Wisconsin Dells Water Parks: Outdoor
Our outdoor Wisconsin Dells water parks are a huge draw. We're talking acres of exhilarating fun including extreme plunge slides, water roller coasters, wave pools, racing slides, river rapids, geysers and bowl rides with stomach-flipping drops.

Wisconsin Dells Amusement Parks Take Extreme Fun To The Limit
Admit it, there’s a little thrill seeker in you. That little voice that tells you to go ahead, bungee jump, take off on the world’s tallest vertical accelerator, ride a roller coaster, take the wheel behind a go-kart, be scared at a haunted house. All of these come with bragging rights, just in case that little voice wanted to know.

Family Fun In The Dells
Not too crazy about the superlatives, but family fun is absolutely everywhere in the Dells. Check out the indoor amusement parks. Did we mention the Dells is also the go-kart and mini-golf capital of the world and we have those attractions indoors too! Add to your to-do list a theater built for magic and another built for Broadway-style shows and interactive museums built for adventure. You get the picture, tempting as it is.

Awesome Wisconsin Dells Scenery
The flip side of heart-pounding fun is the incredible scenic beauty of the Dells. It was the pristine natural resources that first brought travelers here 150 years ago, and they're still a huge draw today.

So paddle your canoe or kayak down the Wisconsin River. Toss out a line and reel in panfish, walleye or bass. Hike one of three nearby state parks. And definitely don't miss water skiing on Lake Delton.
