UNOFFICIAL GUIDE TO LEGOLAND WINDSOR
Fairy Tale Brook
A gentle boat ride around a fairy tale fantasy land which small children will enjoy again and again and again and again...!
Fairy Tale Brook is located in Duplo land and has cute looking green boats which hold up to 4 people. The path the boats take wind around figures - made from Lego, of course. Some of the figures move or make noises. Amongst others, look out for a number of Red Riding Hoods as she passes through the woods on various stages of her journey to Grandma's house, the 3 little pigs, Sleeping Beauty and the 3 billy goats gruff.

The trough the boats pass along contains pumped water - that and a slight downhill drop are what pushes you along. The drop is compensated for at the end by a ramp which grabs each boat and lifts it by half a metre or so, dropping you down a small but bumpy ramp down into a higher stretch of water towards the end of the ride.
The queuing area contains some puzzles and features again based on fairy tales. You can take buggies in to the queue - there is a buggy park area just before you get on the ride.
The music on this ride is quite hypnotic.
