Faarup Sommerland
– Super deal when you want to go to an amusement park
Right by a log cabin, the beach and also completely out in the forest you can find the amusement park Fårup Sommerland.
Fårup is one of Denmark’s biggest tourist attractions with masses of wild, funny and insane water activities for the whole family. Everything from wild slides and Børnetivoli to Denmark’s greatest and wettest waterland.
There are more than 60 amusements – and when first the entry is paid, all amusements and the water park are free.
If you want a day filled with funny activities, Faarup Sommerland is definitely the place to go!
Via Dronninglund Cup’s Information Booth, tickets can be bought to a very favourable price of 37€ per person. (Normal price: 48€). The Information Booth also offers to take care of planning the transport to Faarup Sommerland and back.
Below are just three activities described, but see them all on the Fårup Sommerland website.
PHOENIX!
A huge activicy rises from the forest floor. Phoenix rises 40 meters up to the sky – and spreads out beautifully in the forest – on Denmark’s longest loop course. The Phoenix isdefinitely the fastest bird in all Danish forests with a top speed of 95 km / h!
Phoenix is the roller coaster in Scandinavia that offers the most so-called air-time, which is the feeling of weightlessness that occurs when the body is exposed to negative G-influence. With a total of 14 different elements such as drop, loops and twists, you will experience 9.2 seconds of weightlessness on Phoenix!
Phoenix is the first roller coaster in the world with a so-called STALL LOOP, where the classic loop is combined with a reverse CAMELBACK, which gives an experience of weightlessness for 2.5 seconds – while turning upside down!
Saven (The Saw)
A completely new family rollercoaster has been unveiled in Fårup Sommerland. Saven is the name of the upcoming rollercoaster, which is the tallest rollercoaster in the park so far at 24 metres. Saven is the only rollercoaster in Denmark that runs both backwards and forwards. Despite its ferocity and the fact that it runs both forwards and backwards, Saven will be a joy for the whole family, as it can be ridden by speed-loving guests all the way down to a height of 95 cm.
In this season too, Fårup’s newest ride, Hvirvelvinden (the Whirlwhind), will take brave guests on a neck cracking slalom trip for the first time.
Denmarks’s largest water park!
You will also find in Fårup Denmark’s largest heated Aquapark, where the whole family can splash in the wild waves of the Wave Basin, zip down the curl on Surf Hill or float together in huge bath rings in Vandslangen (the Water Hose). You can also try Vandkanonen (the Water Cannon), which is the world’s first outdoor water slide with a free fall and two loops. But start at the top, all the way up, in a little cabin. A moment after, the floor disappears under the feet, and you whiz off in free fall down in a closed tube and continue at high speed through two loops and end with a big splash!
When the water splashing is over, and the hair is dry, you can surprise your senses in the 4D cinema or laze in the shade of the trees and magic at the big grill-yourself area where a red-hot grill is ready – for free.
In Fårup’s restaurants, the whole family can find their favorite foods – both in the delicious buffet and in the park’s many other eating places. If you are into organics, you can try the 100% organic restaurant, The Forest – Organic restaurant.
Speed, excitement and fun for both large and small!
The forest offers experiences for the whole family. The younger, for example, snatch a ride in Den røde baron” (The Red Baron), where the little pilots steer their own airplane.
Another of the children’s favorites in Fårup is Egerntårnet (the Squirrel Tower), where you are lifted up to the tops of a tree, and hurtle to the ground in a free fall.
For the larger speed demons there are the breakneck slides with plenty of action. Orkanen (The Hurricane runs) – the only slide in Scandinavia – both over and UNDER the water! It is also possible to try Denmark’s wildest accelerator in the slide Lynet (The Lightning), which shoots you off from 0 to 80 km/h in just two seconds.
Or how about a trip in Falken (The Falcon), Denmark’s fastest wooden slide?
In Hvirvelvinden people will be thrown up and down from a 19 meter height, at the same time as they spin around. It is a trip for the biggest daredevils – and clearly one of the wildest rides in Fårup ever!
Fårup is much more than fun slides. You can also romp with horse riding, canoe rides, shooting, bouncy castles, numerous trampolines, climbing frames or a trip through the giant playground.
And then Fårup is above all fun in a true forest atmosphere!
