About

America's first theme park, originally a berry farm that evolved into a full amusement park. Known for its roller coasters, Old West Ghost Town, and boysenberry treats.

Knott's Berry Farm sits at 8039 Beach Blvd in Buena Park, California, and it began as just what its name suggests: a berry farm. Over time it grew into a full amusement park, and it is often described as America's first theme park. Many visitors still know it simply as Knott's.

What to expect

  • Roller coasters are a major draw, and the park is known for them.
  • Old West Ghost Town recreates a frontier setting, a different mood from the rides elsewhere on the grounds.
  • Boysenberry treats keep the park's farm roots in view, and are a natural thing to sample between rides.

Planning the visit

Buena Park is in Orange County, so a day here can be combined with other stops in the area. The park's contact number is +1-714-220-5200, which is the best way to check details before you travel. Because the park is a large, active attraction, it is worth confirming current arrangements in advance rather than relying on older information.

Whether you come for the coasters, the Western-themed village, or the berry-based food, Knott's offers a visit that connects a working farm's history with the long tradition of American amusement parks.
