Faarup Sommerland

Faarup Sommerland

Out in the forest close to Blokhus and the beach 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 waterparks. There are more than 60 amusements - and when first the entrance fee is paid, all amusements and the water park are free of charge.

News in 2017 - Hvirvelvinden
In the 2017 season, Fårup’s newest ride, Hvirvelvinden (the Whirlwind), will take brave guests on a neck cracking slalom trip for the first time. 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! 

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 favourites 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 that is both over and UNDER the water invites for a ride! 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? Fårup is much more than fun roller coasters. 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! 

Denmark’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. It starts 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 favourite 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.

International class experiences!
In both 2015 and 2016, Fårup was named the second best amusement park in Europe. In 2015 Fårup’s staff also received an international prize for providing the world’s third-best service. In addition, in both 2012 and 2013, Fårup was named the best Summerland in Scandinavia - and in 2010, 2011 and 2012, Fårup was named the world’s third-best family park by the American magazine Amusement Today.
