Knott's Berry Farm
Operating
Calico Mine Ride takes you deep into the heart of an old-time Western mining operation, blending classic charm with detailed storytelling. Board an open mine train and wind through dark tunnels, towering caverns, and glowing mineral scenes filled with animated miners hard at work. Gentle dips, tight turns, and bursts of steam and sound keep the journey lively without being too intense, making it a favorite for a wide range of ages. Rich lighting, practical effects, and a cinematic finale create an immersive escape right in the middle of Knott’s Berry Farm.
