What can you do if you have children under 8?

Families with children under 8 haven't been forgotten either. By using the so-called ‘baby switch’, both parents can ride the attraction. One parent joins the queue, while the other reports to the attraction's exit with the children. When the first parent comes off the ride, they take over the children and the other parent can ride via the exit.

 

When can't you ride Danse Macabre?

For safety reasons, you're not allowed to ride Danse Macabre if you're pregnant. This attraction is also not suitable for you if you have a physical injury or a medical condition.
