A lazy river is a
A torrent river, or wave river, is a related concept. Torrent rivers feature wave machines similar to those that are in wave pools; the waves then push riders (who are on rafts, as they are in a regular lazy river) around the river faster than they would be traveling in a regular lazy river. Torrent rivers appear at all of the Schlitterbahn water parks and Aquaventure in Dubai and the Bahamas.
A current channel is another water feature found in aquatic facilities that uses moving water for enjoyment. A current channel usually consists of water 3–5 feet (0.91–1.52 m) deep and the width of the channel is no greater than 10 feet (3.0 m). Water flows similarly to a lazy river but because of the depth can be used for aquatic therapy and swimming or walking against the current.
