Waterski cable private rental

Read more… Show less

Exclusively on the water

Rent our cable privately and enjoy a water sports experience with your group without other visitors. No queues, no crowds – just full focus on your team and the fun. Ideal for those looking to catch up quickly or just want to have an undisturbed blast on the water.

Two cables, two formulas

We have two cables that can be rented for 1 or 2 hours:

  • The small cable: here you go one by one. Perfect for a leisurely start, with intensive guidance for each participant.
  • The big cable: with 8 carriers, 8 people can get on the water at the same time. In a private hire, we set the cable slower if desired, so that even beginners can learn smoothly.

Materials and guidance included

You don’t need to bring anything yourself: water skis, kneeboards, wakeboards and wetsuits are included. Our experienced instructors are on hand to guide each participant at his or her level.

Recommended for beginners

The most commonly chosen formula for beginners? 1 hour small cable + 1 hour big cable. Master the basics first, then move on to big cable. But two hours of big cable is also perfect for beginners – we adjust the pace so that everyone experiences success.

Whether you come with colleagues, friends, family or a sports club, this is the perfect group outing on the water.

  • Why should I choose to rent cable instead of tickets?

    When renting the cable, you are sure to have exclusivity as a company. All materials are also included, so you don’t have to rent them separately. Depending on the number of participants, this can also reduce waiting times and you will have our instructors exclusively for your group.

  • Can I also rent the cable during opening hours?

    If there are no bookings scheduled yet, it is possible to still rent the cable in its entirety.

  • Can water skiing continue in rain or bad weather?

    Yes! You’re already in the water anyway, so some extra splashes of wetness will do. In case of severe weather, we will of course look for an alternative solution.

  • How many people can be on the cable cars at a time?

    On the 2.0 initiation cable there can be one person at a time. On the 5.0 large cable car, 8 people can go at a time. During a time slot, we allow a maximum of 30 people. This way we guarantee that you can start the cable car sufficiently, since you will always need time to swim or walk back.

  • Can I wakeboard right away on my first session?

    The logical order is kneeboarding first, then water skiing, and finally wakeboarding. This is the most difficult step. Experience with snowboarding, kite or skateboarding can help with learning to wakeboard, though. If you want to try wakeboarding for the first time, choose a wakeboard easy-up. Only when you manage to do laps with the easy-up can you switch to an obstacle wakeboard. You can also rent these materials at the reception desk. Feel free to ask a staff member for advice.

    If you would like to wakeboard but find that extra guidance is needed, book a Start2Wake session on Thursday nights from our water ski club AVLAR!

  • Are there showers/changing rooms available?

    Both showers and changing rooms are available on our property. So you can easily change and freshen up before or after activities. For €0.50 you can use our showers. In the adventure park there is also a free fountain and outdoor showers to rinse off.

  • Where can I store my equipment at the cablepark?

    You can store your equipment in the lockers at the cable park. There are small lockers for valuables such as smartphones and wallets. These are free, but with a coin of €1. The large lockers for a backpack and clothing are paying, with a coin of €1.

  • Do you also organize teambuildings for companies in Oudenaarde?

    Sure! We organize outdoor teambuildings around lake Donk for any team: kayaking, team activities, high roupe courses and more. Discover all the options on our corporate collection page.

  • Do you organize activities for schools or youth groups in Oudenaarde?

    Absolutely. We offer adventurous school programs and youth activities around lake Donk. Check out our low-cost offerings for schools and youth work.

  • Can we stay overnight near our activities in Oudenaarde?

    Yes, you can stay in our group accommodation near the lake Donk, it is ideal for groups of 12 people or more. Discover the accommodation offer. Are you with a smaller group and still want to stay in the neighborhood? Then there are many cozy B&Bs, vacation homes and hotels nearby!

  • Can we combine several activities into one day program in Oudenaarde?

    Sure! We would love to help you put together a day of adventure at lake Donk with water and forest activities.
