The A'Famosa Theme Park of Malaysia boosts that they have the world's longest lazy river. The Wisconsin Dells boost as to having the longest lazy river in the US.

"The Wisconsin Dells" isnt a real helpful answer, seeing is how the dells only has 19,000 waterparks...

I mentioned this question to a friend and eh said I should answer Mississippi!

but here are some of the larger Lazy rivers I know of. get a good lsit and we might find out answer.

Castaway Creek - Typhoon lagoon 2,000 ft.
Cross country creek - Blizzard River 2,700ft (estimated)
Journey to the center of the earth(dark ride river) - Water World is between 1320-2640ft
Adventure River - Noah's Arc 1,500ft(estimated)
Schlitterbahn:
Kansas City - uses the transportainment concept when it opens this might be the winner.
New Braunfels - they have no numbers but have many rivers they clam to have the worlds largest shut river.

All the palace ent. water parks seem to have very short rivers nothing longer then 1320ft.

I know where one of the ugliest ones were. The old abandoned one next to Big Dipper at Geauga Lake.

Yeah I thought the same thing too. I just typed it into google and that is what came up. Bu I will try to look at all of the water parks and find the longest lazy river.


Funny, I thought Blizzard Beach had a really long lazy river.

They do, I wrote it in wrong. should be 2,700 not 1,500. So it look slike in general Disney has the longest lazy rivers.

other parks.
Aquatica - 1,320 estimated
Whales Tail(NH) - 1,320ft
Adventure Island(tampa) - 1,700ft estimated
White Water(GA) - 1,500 estimated
