Former writer for Jersey Family Fun, Crystal advises, “My kids must have climbed up and down the tower to those large two-story tube slides for half an hour straight. While this was our favorite spot of the park, I do recommend that you stay close to where they are climbing as the first level off the ground has large openings without a railing near a rock wall. Adults can climb, there is even a small bench when you get to the second story if you need to take a pause after the climb.
