El Rio Grande is a river rafting ride at Walibi Holland where visitors travel through artificial channels with fast-moving water and sudden turns. The course features numerous directional changes and twists that create a dynamic water experience throughout the journey.
The ride was designed by Vekoma and opened in 1994 as part of Walibi Holland's expansion. It has remained a core water-based attraction at the park since its debut.
The attraction represents the Netherlands' modern approach to water-based recreation, combining engineering with entertainment in controlled environments.
