Mystic Mountain Dunn's River with Bobsled & Raggamuffin

Thrills, Sky Lift & Bobsled Adventure Day

We went here as part of our travel company package experiences. We had time here and then over to Dunns river nearby to enjoy that also Our driver Randall collected us from our hotel with one other couple of people. When we arrived he made sure we were looked after until we got our wristbands and able to head into the park. The 1st part of the entrance is a sky lift which takes you from the base to the top of the hill to the main park area, this take approximately 15-20 minutes. As you get off you are met to discuss what time you want to do your activities like zip lining and ATV (if you chose them) they supply lockers at 600 JMD per locker. We found one locker sufficient for 2 bags and bits. We heard straight for the raggamuffin ride and there was no queues at this point. The ride seats 2 people at a time so we split into 2 - 1. The ride isn’t long but as you can ride it over and over it is OK. We then headed to have a look around other areas. We found an area which hummingbirds do come down but we didn’t see any. The bobsled ride had quite the queue as it was one person per sled but eventually we all got on a sled. The gave instructions how to use the brakes and we start the ride. It can be quite quick but as you are in control you can slow it down but it’s better to have a little speed to feel the thrill of it. Surprisingly it’s quite a long ride down and then a long slow wait as the ride take you back up to the top (very steep at times) but as it was automatically taking you up it was easy. We had lunch as part of our package and upon entering the restaurant we were asked what drink we wanted (if we wanted anything extra it was payable) we had jerk chicken, rice and peas and steamed veg with a punch drink. Very nice amount for the price we paid. We had no further activities here we wanted to do so we went to find our driver for them to take us to our next destination. (I will write separately for that one)

Don't Miss these Unique experiences while you are in Ocho Rios or Montego Bay.

Dunn's River is so unbelievably beautiful. You start at the bottom on the beach and climb all the way up the waterfall, 30 to 40 minutes. Water is cold, clear, and refreshing. Mystic Mountain has the most gorgeous flowers and trees, with the gondola ride to the top of the mountain being the highlight of the trip. At the top they have several rides and restaurant where we had the best Pina Coladas I had ever had. The views are stunning. The rides are not Disney caliber but unique in that the view are so amazing. The Bobsled takes you down the mountain at fast speeds and then you get brought back up on a conveyor.

Response from the operator: Thank you for this fantastic review. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed both of these unique Ocho Rios experiences and that your day with us was such a memorable one. Dunn’s River Falls really is something special, and we are glad you loved the refreshing climb from the beach to the top. It is also wonderful to know that Mystic Mountain’s lush surroundings, scenic Sky Explorer ride, stunning views, and attractions all added to the experience. We are especially happy to hear that the Piña Coladas were a highlight too. Your kind words about the beauty of the park and the uniqueness of the rides mean a lot to us. Thank you again for choosing Mystic Mountain. We hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable adventure at the home of the legendary Jamaican bobsled.

Done as part of a cruise ship package- it was outstandingly fun... Ill admit i was extremely nervous about the lift up, but I made it!! The Bobsled ride was fantastic... I went full throttle and loved it!. Walked over to The Raggamuffin and found it awesome---The views are great and it speed and turns make it a true thrill ride. The bus took us to Dunn's River afterward.. No problems, loved the time at Mystic Mountain. Liked that it was minutes from the cruise port!

Christmas 2025- Post hurricane

Despite the frequent rain and wind, we made the most of the day. The skyview explorer is not for those with severe fear of heights; there were beautiful views of the bay below on reaching the top of the mountain. The bobsled was an experience like no other where coaster lovers and non-lovers can control the speed of their ride, making it thrilling or peaceful, depending on your speed. The high ropes/obstacle course could be self guided. The rock climbing wall had different difficulties for various skill levels. Vegetarian food in the restaurant was excellent. Fear of heights prevented us from going on the Ragamuffin which sits at the top most portion of the mountain and is mild/moderate speed natural coaster with epic views of the bay. Although we did not go on, those coming off the ride had positive experiences. The pool and waterslide atop the mountain looked inviting but the wind and cooler climate prevented us from jumping in. Crowd size was small due to weather and post hurricane volume.

Response from the operator: Hi Monica, Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed 5-star review of your visit, especially given the post-hurricane conditions during Christmas 2025. We truly appreciate you making the most of the day despite the rain and wind. We’re glad you enjoyed the Sky Explorer and the beautiful bay views at the top, and it’s great to hear how much you appreciated the flexibility of the legendary Jamaican bobsled, where guests can choose their own pace—whether thrilling or relaxed. Your comments on the ropes course, climbing wall, and the variety of skill levels available are also spot on and helpful for future visitors. We’re especially pleased to hear your positive feedback on the vegetarian food options in our restaurant—our culinary team will be delighted. Even though the Ragamuffin, pool, and waterslide weren’t quite right for the day’s weather or comfort level, we’re happy you still had a well-rounded and enjoyable experience, and that you noticed the positive energy from guests who did ride. Thank you again for visiting Mystic Mountain in Ocho Rios and for such a balanced, informative review. We hope to welcome you back in sunnier conditions so you can enjoy even more of what the mountain has to offer.

Great lifetime moments

We had an amazing time and created so many great moments that will last a lifetime. The bobsleigh was a brilliant thrilling ride as well as the sky lift and raggamuffin ride. My wife was scared before going on the sky lift but that changed as soon as we got on and started moving (she was still a bit panicky about the spiders though 😂).

Response from the operator: hank you so much for sharing your experience, Gsup! 🌟 We’re thrilled to hear that you and your wife had such a memorable adventure with the Mystic Mountain Dunn’s River, Bobsled & Raggamuffin package. It’s wonderful that the Sky Explorer chairlift turned into a positive experience despite a little spider panic 😅, and that the Bobsled and Raggamuffin rides gave you those thrilling lifetime moments. We’re so glad you chose to spend your day with us in Ocho Rios, and we look forward to welcoming you back for even more unforgettable adventures in Jamaica! 🌿🎢✨
