Flamingo Land is home to some of the best white knuckle thrillers in the UK including, Velocity the UK's only motorbike coaster, The Navigator, The Circulator and Cliff Hanger which will blast you 200 feet into the air before plunging you back to earth. New for 2006 is Kumali, this suspended coaster will send you on a journey through over 1000 metres of twists, loops and turns at speeds in excess of 60mph.

New for 2006 is Muddy Duck Farm, youngsters will be able to drive their very own tractor through the farm where they will be able to see their favourite farmyard animals as well as some themed surprises.

For those of you just too small for the dizzy heights of the Cliff Hanger, there's your very own free falling Frog Hopper.
