Scorpios

Scorpios is the flying swinging ship in Ithaka. In this sturdy ship, the Greek warriors braved the wild waves. Now it's your turn. The ride has been in the park since 2010.

The concept

Scorpios was built by Metallbau Emmeln and is 15 metres tall. The ship fits into the story of Ithaka, where the Greeks went to war against Troy.

The Experience

The ship swings back and forth, higher and higher. The swell soon takes you to an angle of no less than 75 degrees. You reach about 42 km/h and a ride lasts around 70 seconds. The most thrilling bit is the moment at the top, when you float for a second.

Discover Scorpios

Choose your spot

In the outer rows you feel the swing most strongly. In the middle it's calmer.

Hands in the air

At 75 degrees, not many people dare to keep their hands up. Do you?

Combine with Troy

Scorpios is right next to Troy, so you can do two Ithaka rides in quick succession.
