Heide Park Resort
The largest theme park in northern Germany, known for its wooden coaster Colossos and a super-tall drop tower, with an adventure-themed hotel on site.
Heide Park lies north of Soltau and covers about 85 hectares. It is the largest theme park in northern Germany, with more than 40 rides and shows. Signature attractions include Colossos, one of Europe's tallest wooden roller coasters, the Flug der Dämonen, a suspended coaster with no track underneath, and Scream, a drop tower about 103 meters high. There are also many attractions for young children in Little Monsters' Land. The park has a pirate-themed adventure hotel and holiday wooden cabins, and it suits a two-day visit. Tickets bought online are much cheaper than at the gate. Queues are long on summer weekends and holidays, and opening dates should be checked on the official website. It is about an hour's drive from Hamburg and Hanover, and direct buses run during peak season.
