The Zig Zag was a rather sedate twister / merry mixer type ride, more of a kiddies ride than an adult ride.

The Zig-Zag was situated on the wooded side of the park which was where all the rides are at present. As already stated it was like a Twister but was surrounded by greenery. It looked similar to the pictures below with the cars having canopies.
