La Rivière d'Elis

La Rivière d'Elis is a gentle boat ride in the Greek area. You float through the Mediterranean gardens of Elis, past figures from Greek mythology. On the park's Dutch-language website it's called De rivier door Elis.

The concept

Just like Astérix and Obélix in the comic, you travel to ancient Greece. Along the way you'll come across mythological figures and Greek gods. The banks are full of flowers and lavender.

The Experience

You sit back in your little boat and let yourself be carried along past the gardens. There are no drops and you won't get wet. The park describes it as a divine stroll through a magical world.

Discover La Rivière d'Elis

Take a breather

A lovely attraction after the rollercoasters: you're seated, it's slow and there's plenty to see.

For the little ones too

From 0.50 metres you can ride when accompanied.

Check whether it's open

In 2026, La Rivière d'Elis was closed from 3 October to 8 November inclusive. Check the park's website before you go.

Visitor information

From 0.50 metres you can ride accompanied by an adult. From 1.20 metres you can ride on your own. With the Baby Switch, parents don't have to queue twice: one parent goes on the ride while the other waits with the child, then boards without queuing. Ask a member of staff. Wheelchair users take a lift to the station; you must be able to transfer into the boat yourself.

A break in Greece

La Rivière d'Elis is ideal with young children or as a breather. Afterwards, you can catch the show Les plongeons de l'Olympe in the Greek area.
