Europa-Park is not only Europe’s most visited seasonal theme park, but also an impressive total package with more than 100 attractions, a huge show programme, five high-class hotels and a great value for the money. Europe’s Most Immersive Theme Parks Phantasialand, Germany | Opening: 1967 Disneyland Park, France | Opening: 1992 Europa-Park, Germany | Opening: 1975 PortAventura, Spain | Opening: 1995 Parc Asterix, France | Opening: 1989 Germany’s Most Immersive Theme Parks Phantasialand | Opening: 1967 Europa-Park | Opening: 1975 Legoland Deutschland | Opening: 2002 Das Phantasialand zeichnet sich durch einen ungemein hohen Grad an Immersion aus: Es gibt keine störende Werbung, die einzelnen Welten sind konsequent thematisiert – angefangen von landestypischer Gastronomie bis hin zur Gestaltung der Sanitäranlagen. Phantasialand features an incredibly high level of immersion: There are no annoying commercials or product placements, all areas are themed consistently – from country-specific catering to the design of sanitary facilities. 29 Europe’s Best Theme Parks (Attendance: < 1.000.000) Toverland, Netherlands | Opening: 2001 Erlebnispark Tripsdrill, Germany | Opening: 1929 Fårup Sommerland, Denmark | Opening: 1975 Djurs Sommerland, Denmark | Opening: 1981 Nigloland, France | Opening: 1987 Germany’s Best Theme Parks (Attendance: < 1.000.000) Erlebnispark Tripsdrill | Opening: 1929 Holiday Park | Opening: 1971 Freizeitpark Plohn | Opening: 1996 Dank gleich zwei neuer, komplett thematisierter Bereiche und drei neuen Attraktionen, darunter ein Wing Coaster von Bolliger & Mabil- lard, erklimmt das niederländische Toverland in diesem Jahr erstmalig das Siegerpodest. Because of two new completely themed areas and three new attractions, among them a Bolliger & Mabillard Wing Coaster, Dutch themepark Toverland is the winner of this category for the first time. Europe’s Best Wooden Coasters Wildfire (Kolmården, Sweden) – Rocky Mountain Construction / Vekoma | Opening: 2016 El Toro (Freizeitpark Plohn, Germany) – Great Coasters International | Opening: 2009 Balder (Liseberg, Sweden) – Intamin | Opening: 2003 Troy (Toverland, Netherlands) – Great Coasters International | Opening: 2007 Wodan (Europa-Park, Germany) – Great Coasters International | Opening: 2012 Germany’s Best Wooden Coasters El Toro (Freizeitpark Plohn) – Great Coasters International | Opening: 2009 Wodan (Europa-Park) – Great Coasters International | Opening: 2012 Mammut (Tripsdrill) – Cordes Holzbau / Gerstlauer | Opening: 2008 Es ist schon erstaunlich, dass ein Zoo in Schweden sich dazu entschließt, eine Holzachterbahn zu bauen. Wenn Wildfire aber dann auch noch qualitativ mit einem begeisternden Fahrgefühl alle anderen Anlagen in Europa schlägt, ist dies nur umso bemerkenswerter. It’s quite amazing that a Swedish zoo builds a wooden rollercoaster. But it’s simply impressive that Wildfire beats all other European wooden coasters with an inspiring ride experience. 30 AND THE WINNER IS INVERTED POWERED COASTER Arthur, Europa-Park We thank the jury for awarding our broad line-up with many of the Parkscout Awards. Find more fabulous rides at www.mack-rides.com Europe’s Best Steel Coasters Taron (Phantasialand, Germany) – Intamin | Opening: 2016 Helix (Liseberg, Sweden) – Mack Rides | Opening: 2014 Lech Coaster (Legendia, Poland) – Vekoma | Opening: 2017 Katun (Mirabilandia, Italy) – Bolliger & Mabillard | Opening: 2000 Der Schwur des Kärnan (Hansa-Park, Germany) – Gerstlauer | Opening: 2015 Germany’s Best Steel Coasters Taron (Phantasialand) – Intamin | Opening: 2016 Der Schwur des Kärnan (Hansa-Park) – Gerstlauer | Opening: 2015 Blue Fire Megacoaster (Europa-Park) – Mack Rides | Opening: 2009 Keine andere Achterbahn in Europa vereint dermaßen perfekt eine großartige Thematisierung mit innovativer Technik und einem mitreißenden Fahrgefühl. Taron ist nichts anderes als die Summe all dessen, was eine Thrill-Achterbahn heutzutage bieten kann. No other European rollercoaster combines amazing theming, innovative technologies and a great ride experience in such a perfect way: Taron is nothing less than the sum of everything a modern thrill coaster can offer. Europe’s Best Family Coasters Big Thunder Mountain (Disneyland Paris, France) – Vekoma | Opening: 1992 Pegase Express (Parc Asterix, France) – Gerstlauer | Opening: 2017 Die Schlange von Midgard (Hansa-Park, Germany) – Gerstlauer | Opening: 2011 Colorado Adventure (Phantasialand, Germany) – Vekoma | Opening: 1996 Huracan (Bellewaerde, Belgium) – Zierer | Opening: 2013 Germany’s Best Family Coasters Die Schlange von Midgard (Hansa-Park) – Gerstlauer | Opening: 2011 Colorado Adventure (Phantasialand) – Vekoma | Opening: 1996 Raik (Phantasialand) – Vekoma | Opening: 2016 Wenn es um eine Familienachterbahn geht, liegt der Fokus natürlich auf einer möglichst geringen Mindestgröße. Mit Big Thunder Moun- tain haben Vekoma und Disneyland Paris eine Anlage geschaffen, die nicht nur eine kinderfreundliche Fahrt ermöglicht, sondern deren Gestaltung nicht besser sein könnte. When it comes to family coasters it’s all about the minimum height. Vekoma and Disneyland Paris built a rollercoaster not only enabling a child-friendly ride experience – Big Thunder Mountain is also a milestone in theming. 32 Europe’s Best Darkrides Arthur (Europa-Park, Germany) – Mack Rides | Opening: 2014 Pirates of the Caribbean (Disneyland Park, France) – Intamin | Opening: 1992 Symbolica (Efteling, Netherlands) – ETF Rides | Opening: 2017 Fata Morgana (Efteling, Netherlands) – Intamin | Opening: 1986 Maus au Chocolat (Phantasialand, Germany) – ETF Rides / Alterface | Opening: 2011 Germany’s Best Darkrides Arthur (Europa-Park) – Mack Rides | Opening: 2014 Maus au Chocolat (Phantasialand) – ETF Rides / Alterface | Opening: 2011 Abenteuer Atlantis (Europa-Park) – Mack Rides | Opening: 2007 Mit Arthur haben der Europa-Park und Mack Rides einen Darkride für die ganze Familie erschaffen, der aber trotzdem durch die Ge- schwindigkeitswechsel eine gewisse Rasanz aufweist und durch sein Hybridkonzept eine neue Erlebnisstufe kreiert hat. With Arthur Europa-Park and Mack Rides built a darkride for the whole family featuring speed variations and creating a new experience with its hybrid concept.

  • Chessington World of Adventures Guide
    Chessington World of Adventures Guide Overview One of three theme parks located in Greater London that are operated by Merlin Entertainments Group, Chessington World of Adventures combines a host of rides and shows with a world-class zoo. Whereas nearby LEGOLAND Windsor is aimed at families with kids aged 2-12, and Thorpe Park caters for teens and young adults, Chessington offers something for just about every age group. In addition to the theme park and zoo, the site is also home to the Holiday Inn Chessington, a safari-themed hotel that overlooks the Wanyama Village & Reserve area. History The origins of Chessington World of Adventures can be traced back to 1931, when a new zoo was established in the grounds of a fourteenth century country mansion by entrepreneur Reginald Goddard. The zoo was eventually acquired by the Pearsons Group in 1978, which subsequently merged with the Madame Tussauds chain to form The Tussauds Group. The newly-formed company embarked on an ambitious £12 million project to build a theme park on the site, and Chessington World of Adventures opened to the public in 1987.

  • ACE's Scandinavian Sojourn
    ACE’s Scandinavian Sojourn : A Southerner’s Perspective Story by: Richard Bostic, assisted by Ronny Cook When I went on the ACEspana trip back in 2009, it was by far one of the most amazing vacations I have ever experienced. In addition to getting to visit parks in a different culture than we see here, it is also a great opportunity to spend time with fellow enthusiasts and grow friendships while enjoying our common interests. When Scandinavia Sojourn was announced for the summer of 2011, I knew it was a trip I could not miss. Since the 2009 trip was my first trip to Europe I thought that there was no way the over- all experience could be better in Scandinavia. I was wrong. We landed in Helsinki, Finland around 1300 the day before we were required to be at the hotel to meet with the group. Helsinki is an interesting city and fairly new compared to many cities in Europe. Walking around the city you can see the Russian influence in the city’s architecture. In fact, many movies during the cold war would use Helsinki to shoot scenes that are supposed to be set in the Soviet Union. After making our way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel and getting a quick lunch at the hotel restaurant we decided to spend the remaining time that afternoon checking out some of the sites around our hotel. Some of these sites included the Temppeliaukio Church inside of a rock formation, the train station, Routatientori Square and National Theater, and a couple of the city’s art museums.
