Amazonia
Amazonia is the big water ride in Mundo Amazonia, Bellewaerde's newest area. According to the park, it's a world first that you'll only find here. The ride opened in 2024 and combines a boat trip with a spinning lift and a gigantic half-pipe.
The concept
Mundo Amazonia is an old, abandoned mining town in the Amazon rainforest, where time has stood still. You sail into the mine in a round boat. The route is 540 metres long and takes you past water, tunnels and the mining town scenery. According to the park, Amazonia has the biggest half-pipe in the world.
The Experience
Along the way, your boat is carried up by a wildly spinning lift. Then you glide down the half-pipe and shoot back up the other side, as high as 26 metres. The boat isn't fast (14 km/h at most), but the ride is full of surprises and lasts about six minutes.
