Bellewaerde Park will be adding a new gen Intamin Rapids for 2024. Its looks to have a great layout and I really like the look of the giant halfpipe.

The ride will have two lifts with the highest at 26 meters being a vertical rotating elevator. A Zamperla Nebula will also be built along with other attractions. In fact lots of different areas of the park will being getting updates.

To be fair It does look like something from them but sources for quite a while have been saying its an Intamin Rapids, and there is this quote from the park " The exact planning is still under review with ride builder Intamin and the designers are busy ,"

There is this site that has a collection of articles dating back to early this year with most stating its an Intamin.


There are also some great photos of the ride on here.

The renderings also show the same boat layout as Mystic River Falls at Silver Dollar City. Note the four-across seating on either side separated by the staircase railings:

The Nebulaz will be called Hampi and the Zamperla Barnyard will be called Psssht Station. Both rides are set to open with the park on April 1st. In total, Bellewaerde is investing €16 million into new rides, restaurants, animal enclosures, and other refurbishments this year.
