Toddlers Theme Park Itinerary
Arrival at Alton Towers
We know that young children wake up early, especially when they’re excited! Make the most of your family day out at Alton Towers by arriving early. The gates open at 10am every day that Alton Towers theme park is open.
The car park and monorail are open from 9am. We recommend taking the monorail as it takes between 10-25 minutes to walk from the car park to the theme park gate. That’s a long way for little legs!
Your route around CBeebies Land
CBeebies Land is home to some of the best children’s theme park rides and attractions in the UK. With all our preschool rides and attractions in one place, it should be possible to take part in all of the fun on offer.
Plan your day to include a combination of children’s rollercoaster rides and interactive amusement park attractions.

Stop for Lunch
Stopping for lunch doesn’t mean the fun has to stop!

These include: Woodcutter’s Bar and Grill and The Burger Kitchen near the Towers, Explorers Pizza and Pasta Buffet at Katanga Canyon, and The Burger Kitchen in Mutiny Bay.
Try something a bit different
There’s plenty for young children and toddlers to enjoy beyond the gates of CBeebies Land at Alton Towers. Why not explore the historic gardens of the Towers stately home? There’s lots of room to run around or enjoy a picnic on a sunny day.
For slightly older preschoolers, head to the towers for Gangsta Granny: The Ride. Or watch your little one earn their licence in Cuckoo Cars Driving School!
Or, cross Towers Street from CBeebies Land to Mutiny Bay for a trip to Sharkbait Reef aquarium. This SEA LIFE attraction has tanks full of colourful fish at the perfect height for young children to see.
One for the Grown Ups
Parents will love seeing their little ones light up as they come face-to-face with their favourite CBeebies characters. But thrill seeking adults will also be bursting to try one of our iconic rollercoasters.
Treat yourself to a few exhilarating minutes, just for grown ups. Wicker Man is the closest rollercoaster to CBeebies Land. Or, if you’re in child-friendly Cloud Cuckoo Land, you can easily reach Oblivion, The Smiler, Rita or TH13TEEN.
