When Speed: No Limits opened, Gerstlauer Eurofighters were still a novelty as this was only the third one built. This, along with Megafobia (CCI woodie), brings a lot of coaster enthusiasts out to Wales. Megafobia was at one time considered one of the world's finest woodies but now provides an inconsistent ride.
Hydro (Intamin River Plunge) is one of the world's tallest and steepest water rides, but the line can get quite long. Bounce (Huss Shot 'n' Drop Tower) is another intense ride worth trying.
Don't miss two unique dark rides: Spooky 3D and Brer Rabbit's Burrow--a messed-up train ride through the underground lair of some hedonistic bunnies.
Food
There are five eateries with distinct menus: The Restaurant (fish and chips, pasta, potatoes, salads), Woody's Burgers (beef, chicken, or veggie burgers along with hot dogs), Dixie's (fried chicken pieces and strips), and Pit Stop (hot dogs and bacon baguettes).

Oakwood is an interesting little park with quirky attractions, classic rides, and a few coasters.
The park doesn't quite have enough attractions to keep thrillseekers or families entertained for a full day. The park is well shaded and can be enjoyed at a very leisurely pace.
This park is quite beautiful. I really enjoyed the scenery of this park and I thought it was quite interesting that there were sheep under Megaphobia to keep the grass cut. A lot of the rides are covered with several trees and some of the rides you might have to keep you heads down and hands covering your face your the branches from the trees will hit you. Some of the dark rides were quite interesting but there weren't a lot of rides to fill the day. We spent half a day at this park.
