    Swampie's Swing

    Swampie's Swing is a Kontiki Ride built by Zierer. Other builders like Zamperla will call it a Rockin' tug. This version is totally indoor, so you can ride it everyday. The ride has a kind of standard gondola. But the construction is themed with wood, which is unusual for this kind of rides. Swampie's Swing also have it's own flag, due the lack of wind inside the building the flag will constantly hit the wood that holds the flag up. Every year the flag needs to be repaired.



    For this kind of ride it is amazingly popular, We don't know exactly how that is possible, but the ride is 80% of the time totally full. During the ride you will go up and down like in a pirate ship, but after some times the gondola starts to spin around, this gives a funny ride that many people will enjoy. If you can't handle sea sickness, just avoid this ride, you can get sick of the moves that it makes.

     Did you know:
    Swampie's Swing is the only ride of Toverland where the mascotte Swampie is used on? It was supposed to be used more in the Magic Forest, but it didn't, On the backstroke is also an extra mascotte, but that one was also kind of used for the Boosterbike ride, this character is used 2 times. Swampie only on this ride, but he has his own kiosk outside the building!

    - Popularity Attraction
    This ride is for this type very popular, many kids love this attraction.

    - Waiting Times
    The waiting times starts with at least 3 minutes, but can walk up to 6 when it's raining.

    - Theming attraction
    The ride is themed unique, the wooden boat is used in more theme parks, but at least it is not the standard happy boat from the other parks. Toverland also added their own flag, and a wooden structure for the base of the ride. At least the standard ride already is pretty good themed. So six stars is on it's place.


    - Riding Time
    The riding time is 1 minute and 50 seconds.

    - Disordering of attraction
    This ride is always open, it seems to work perfect and it actually never breaks down.
