About This Venue
The American Adventure was a popular theme park located in Shipley Country Park near Ilkeston, Derbyshire, which operated from 1987 to 2007. This American Wild West-themed attraction featured roller coasters, water rides, and family entertainment across 100 acres of parkland. The park included themed areas such as a Native American village, Wild West town, and various adventure rides including the famous Missile roller coaster and Rocky Mountain Rapids.
