The queue line wraps around the ride surrounded by the trees. After you go through the line you enter the area where you can choose one of the swings to ride in. The swings slowly start to move upward from the ground as you spin. Now the rooftop tips at different angles as you go around coming down to the ground and then going up into the air. This continues until the ride starts to slow down and the rooftop stops tilting and the swings come back to the ground before the ride ends.

5.5/10


Swings of the Century is a gentle family ride and is a classic which you will find in many parks. The ride is surrounded by trees and shrubbery in the area. It features paintings on it and has swings that you sit in as you go around in a circle in the air, suspended from the rooftop of the ride. Swings of the Century is popular with families and almost everyone can ride because it's gentle as you soar through the air and feel like you're flying.


Colours: The ride is painted in creme with paintings and other art designs covering the roof and main arm.
Best Seats: It doesn't matter much where you sit because everyone will see the same view as you swing around up and down.
Queue Line Wait Time: The wait is about 5 to 10 minutes.
