A huge waterpark is now home to Europe’s biggest waterslide – with four “world-exclusive” rides.
Stingray opened this summer at O’Gliss park in Le Bernard, France. It is a two-person ride which has become the largest waterslide in Europe.
The new ride has four different routes from the top of its 85ft structure – each offering riders a different experience.
O’Gliss is labelling Stingray as a “unique and immersive water park experience”, with the four-slide design described as a “world-exclusive”.
The park’s website reads: “In a two-person float, answer the call of the Stingray and get your fill of sliding on the different descents.
“Whichever of the four routes you take, you’ll be immersed in a thrilling experience as you whirl around on the wings of the Stingray.
“At a height of 26 meters, you’re sure not to miss any of your friends’ descents, and you’ll want to do each one again and again.”
O’Gliss claims to have four “world-exclusive” rides, such as its “wild rivers” which have 1,312 of trails with differing speeds.
The Ludo’Park is a spot for younger children and families to relax and play in a pool equipped for their needs with deckchairs for parents.
For thrillseekers, there is the Delir’Space which has 12 slides ranging from beginner to advanced.
There is also a virtual white water rafting experience, a surfing bar with foam parties, a private beach and a wave pool.
The park has hundreds of five-star reviews on TripAdvisor from happy visitors. One wrote: “It’s a huge attraction, with multiple slides and activity areas. A great day out for a family with young children.”
Another said: “This place is amazing and worth every penny.” A third added: “A hidden joy! Please go try O’Gliss you will have a lovely day.”
