Guests will take a trip back into the American West in Frontier Adventures. It most certainly is the "wild" west, with four coasters, a log flume and countless other attractions. The most famous part of Frontier Adventures is the fort which houses the station for Runaway Train and the loading area for Sky Way. This structure dates back to the opening of the park in 1974.

Highlighting the area is Medusa, the world's first floorless coaster and the second of the park's four Bolliger and Mabillard designed coasters. However, since its addition in 1999, no new attraction has been built in the area. In 2006, Runaway Train received a new color scheme and new trains.

Though once one of the largest and most popular areas of the park, Frontier Adventures changed in 2006 when its area was split in half by the creation of Plaza del Carnaval. Rolling Thunder, which once defined Frontier Adventures, is now in a new section of the park themed to a Mexican carnaval.
