In 1998, the world's tallest free fall ride opened in the area. Standing at 120 metres (390 ft) high, the Giant Drop accelerates riders at speeds of up to 135 kilometres per hour (84 mph).

Attractions

Dreamworld Express

The Dreamworld Express is one of Dreamworld's original, opening day attractions. At opening the ride was known as the Cannon Ball Express and only featured one stop in Main Street. The stop in Rocky Hollow is the fourth and final stop before the train returns to Main Street. Other stops include Billabong Station and Australian Wildlife Experience Station. The railway has two trains. The first is a Perry with the second being a Baldwin. Due to high levels of maintenance it is very rare that both trains operate on the same day.
