Excalibur, Spinning amusement ride at Walibi Holland, Netherlands
Excalibur is a spinning ride at Walibi Holland where visitors are lifted high into the air by two rotating arms while tumbling repeatedly. The paired gondolas spin and flip in multiple directions through hydraulic-controlled movements, keeping passengers suspended throughout the experience.
The ride opened in 2000 as Walibi Holland expanded its attractions. A major renovation in 2019 gave it a fresh appearance and updated movement sequences.
The medieval-themed ride reflects the park's original Sherwood Forest section, incorporating elements from Arthurian legends into its design.
Visitors must be at least 140 centimeters (55 inches) tall to ride. All loose items should be secured before boarding, as the experience involves intense flips and rotations.
The complete ride cycle lasts around four minutes and combines multiple movements at once. Passengers experience not just simple flips but also complex rotations at varying angles.
