The Pirate
Are you ready for an adventure at sea? Climb aboard The Pirate and imagine yourself a real buccaneer for a while. The Pirate is a large swinging ship that takes you on a voyage across the wild ocean. Slagharen calls the ride intense.
The concept
The Pirate is a classic swinging ship. The pirate ship hangs from a large arm and swings back and forth, just like a swing. The whole family sits side by side on long benches, so you share the adventure together.
The Experience
At first the boat swings gently back and forth, but the waves get higher and higher. At the highest point you briefly seem to lift out of your seat. Hold on tight as the ship swings further and further. After a while the ship comes to rest again and you return to solid ground.

Choose your spot
The further towards the back or front you sit, the higher you go. In the middle the ride is a little calmer.
Supervision by 18+
Children from 1 metre and under 18 may ride with someone aged 18 or over.
Another ship
Fogg's Trouble is also a swinging ship, but smaller and suitable for younger children.
Visitor information
To ride on your own, you must be at least 1.20 metres tall. Children from 1.00 metre and under 18 may ride accompanied by someone aged 18 or over. In certain weather conditions the ride may open later, close earlier or stay closed. Do you have a disability? Then pick up a yellow or purple access wristband at Guest Service. It lets you enter via a separate entrance; it does not give priority.
Ahoy in the Wild West
After your voyage across the ocean, you head back to the Wild West. Near the ships you'll find more thrilling rides, such as El Torito and the Tomahawk.
