Visitor tips
- •Gold Rush can run two separate cycles which can lead to two different ride experiences. Cycle 1 runs from the second the ride opens and continues to do so until it switches to cycle 2. Cycle 2 runs in the afternoon until the end of the day (usually starting around 2pm). If you want to catch both, make sure to visit Gold Rush more than once during your visit.
