Menhir Express

Menhir Express is the log flume in the Gaulish zone. You help Obélix deliver his menhirs and float across the water in a floating menhir. On the park's Dutch-language website it is called De Menhir Expres.

The concept

Obélix is busy: too many menhirs need delivering in the park. Want to help him? Then climb into one of the floating menhirs. The delivery round starts in the Gaulish zone.

The Experience

Whirlpools and waves: the park describes the ride as fairly turbulent. The highlight is the big drop at the end, which will thoroughly quench your thirst for adventure. You reach the bottom with a splash, and usually wet too.

Expect to get wet

The park warns you up front: your shirt will get wet. The final descent in particular makes a big splash.

Not during the Christmas period

Menhir Express is closed during Noël Gaulois.

Cooling off in Gaul
