Log Ride Demolition

Featured Replies

With the other demolition works happening throughout the park right now, there is a chance it will be demolished soon. But I’d say they are just removing the ride signage for now (basically so it’s not advertising the ride) and it will be demolished at a later date 

Ok. You seem to be confused, so let me be VERY specific.

The rides sign, at the entrance, where the word 'log ride' was positioned in big letters, just below the word 'rocky hollow' had had the words 'log ride' removed prior to February 23, when I last visited, the day before the inquest findings were handed down.

As at February 23, the words 'Rocky Hollow' were still there.

And it's still not a sign of demolition. Its just a smart thing to do when you close a ride permanently so people don't get upset when they see a sign for a ride that they can't ride, and is also why the tower of terror signage was removed off the tunnel when tower closed permanently too.

it's STILL not a sign of demolition, and it wasn't "JUST RECENTLY" when the ride has been closed for a month, and the signage had already been removed at least two weeks ago.

Ah thanks for clearing that up. I haven’t been to Dreamworld for a while and I haven’t heard about the sign update until yesterday.

Has there been any updates over in the Rocky Hollow area? Has the ride been boarded off yet?

Blue Lagoon is still there 16 years after closing. Maybe don't get your hopes up that the Log Ride is going to be demolished any time soon.

Ride entrance has been boarded up since its closure announcement. As for demolishing etc nothing yet. It was a sudden closure. So I doubt any replacement has been thought about. As much of an eye sore as it currently is its a lot cheaper to leave is SBNO then demolish it currently.

I think we will see it like this for some time just like Blue Lagoon.

Weird seeing the Log Ride like that, doesn't even look like a theme park ride anymore, more like some abandoned piece of outback machinery.

I think some of Blue Lagoon was being used for the Big Brother House. It used to be mentioned on the map around 5 years ago, but no longer mentioned.

Dreamworld studios and the old blue lagoon site were different things, albeit near each other. 
I believe the toilet blocks at blue lagoon were used for the live audience at the shows.

Honestly, I just miss the toilets at the old BB cafe. No one knew about them so they were always so clean and empty. 

That one time we acted as guest service to that family when they got lost.
